The VISTA technique is a minimally invasive method that can completely cover multiple teeth with just one access incision. In the area of aesthetics, this technique is successful.

Both graft materials demonstrated good results; however, using the chorion membrane improved the gingival phenotype and had no unfavorable effects.

Since complete root coverage for multiple teeth was achieved using the least traumatic method, VISTA with a chorion membrane should be encouraged.

AbstractObjectives

Modified form of VISTA (MVISTA), a novel surgical procedure, aims at comprehensive root coverage that maintains the inner continuity of the periosteum and papilla. This technique incorporates any regenerative graft material within the tunnel. The objective of study is to compare the MVISTA for treating multiple adjacent gingival recessions and chorion membranes or grafts of connective tissues.

Materials and methods

This is a split-mouth type randomized trial. In this trial total of 18 patients were considered. The patients in this trial had multiple adjacent, gingival recessions of Miller's Classes I/II, and they were randomized to either the MVISTA with chorion membrane (test) or connective tissue graft (CTG) (control) group. A baseline and one year after surgery were considered for recording to mean root coverage (MRC), complete root coverage (CRC), and clinical periodontal parameters. An intragroup comparison was made.

Results

The intragroup comparison of recession depth baseline and 12 months after-surgery record found a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.00). In the postoperative condition, the depth of recession reduction was higher in the test group than in the control group. However, from a statistical perspective, the difference was insignificant (P > 0.05). At the end of the year, it was found that the width of the keratinized tissue had increased significantly (P < 0.05). The MRC in the test group was significantly higher (91.33 %±8.17 %) than that in the control group (89.46 %±11.22 %) (P > 000). At the end of 1 year, the test group showed 66.67 % CRC compared to 44.44 % in the control group. The gingival phenotype displayed statistically significant improvement in the test group (p = 0.004). PD and CAL showed statistically nonsignificant outcomes (P > 0.05).

Conclusions

As far as multiple adjacent gingival recession treatment is concerned, MVISTA with chorion membrane treatment enhanced the gingival phenotype, restored complete root coverage (66.6%), and increased the width of keratinized tissue. CTG and CM demonstrated good root coverage results; the latter might be used as a substitute graft to treat multiple recessions.
