Popis: | Gingival recessions are a highly prevalent issue that is often associated with interproximal tissue deficiency. An intervention in these scenarios is of extreme importance since these defects can lead to aesthetic, phonetic and other dental problems. Unfortunately, the treatment of advanced gingival recessions is a major challenge in periodontics because of its unpredictability. In such cases, the use of injectable fillings, connective tissue grafts or bone grafts for vertical regeneration in interproximal area presents limited results. Considering that, this special report reviewed the possible use of additively manufactured scaffolds as a therapeutic option. A 3D-printed personalized therapy is expected to simplify the regeneration of interproximal area, enabling bone regeneration, new papilla formation and root coverage. |
