Core Tip

Core Tip: The use of minimally invasive vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access technique, along with collagen membrane acting as scaffold and chemoattractant with added benefit of injectable form of platelet-rich fibrin has the capacity of releasing more growth factors and regenerative cells responsible for tissue regeneration, can be successfully used as a treatment method for multiple or isolated gingival recessions of Miller’s class-I and class-II defects.
