Case ManagementPrior to t e proce ures, written in orme consent was o -taine rom a patients. Gingiva augmentation apica tothe recession with FGG was performed in all five patients.After obtaining anesthesia, the submarginal recipient bedwas prepared by a horizontal incision 1 mm apical to the
ase o t e su cus in t e a veo ar mucosa. Two vertica in-cisions were ma e at t e en o orizonta incision. T epartial-thickness flap was separated and a firm periostealbed was obtained. An approximately 1-mm-thick graftwas arveste rom t e premo ar region o t e pa ate.The graft was positioned and sutured on the periostea
bed (Fig. 1). A periodontal pack was applied. The patientsreceived routine postsurgical instructions and were advisednot to rus t e treate site or 4 wee s. T ey were pre-scri e 0.12% c or exi ine mout rinse twice ai y or4 weeks, systemic antibiotics (500 mg amoxicillin, every8 hours for 5 days), and analgesics (400 mg ibuprofen,every 8 ours or 5 ays). Sca ing, i nee e , was one 1month after surgery. PD, RD, and WKG were recordeat 1 year a ter surgery. PD was t e same preoperative yand after 1 year. There were increases in the WKG anddecreases in RD in all 10 teeth (Figs. 2 through 6; Tables1 an 2).
Clinical OutcomesThere was considerable improvement in the gingival statusafter gingival augmentation apical to recession. Increase inWKGwas 3.5 to5.5 mm (Ta e 1).Decreasein RDas a re-sult of creeping attachment was in range of 0.4 to 2.8 mm(Figs. 2 t roug 6; Ta e 2).
DiscussionTreatment of Miller Class III GR cases poses a challenge tothe periodontist in day-to-day practice because of loss ointerproxima one an so t tissues. T e amount o root
coverage in these situations depends primarily on inter-proximal attachment level. Gingival augmentation apicalto t e recession is equa y important an is more pre ict-able than root coverage in these cases.

Summary
Why is this case new information? j To the best of our knowledge, root coverage through creeping
attachment in Miller Class III recessions has not been previouslyreported.
What are the keys to successful
management of this case?
j FGG facilitated plaque control. It favored long-term creeping
attachment.
What are the primary limitations to
success in this case?
j Root coverage was not attempted because there was little difference
in the attachment levels on surfaces bearing the recession and
neighboring proximal surfaces.

CASE REPORT
Clinical and Histologic Long-Term Evaluation of a SubepithelialConnective Tissue Graft Used as Treatment for a
Mucogingiva efect: Case epor
Joo Carnio* and Paulo M. Camargo
Introduction: The objective of this casereport is to examine the epithelial surface characteristics of a fully submergedsubepithelial onnective tissue graft (CTG) that was initially performed to treat a mucogingival problem seven years earlier.
Surface keratinization f a fully submerged CTG may be desirable, but its predictability is still subject to debate.
Case Presentation: Two adjacent lower teeth were treated for recession and minimal amount of keratinized tissue.The surgical technique included flap advancement and the CTG was completely covered with a flap that had mostly a non-
keratinized surface. At 18 months after surgery, the surface of the healed CTG showed mostly no clinical or histologic signs
f epithelial keratinization; at that point, the surface epithelium of the whole grafted area was surgically excised and allowed
o heal by secondary intention. The absence f keratinization persisted after the second surgical procedure.Conclusion: When fully submerged, a CTG may not induce keratinization of its overlying epithelial surface. Clin Adv

Anot er possi e exp anation or t e a sence o epit e-lial keratinization in the treated area is the fact that the flaphat initially covered the CTG presented with a compo-
nent, albeit thin, of connective tissue. Therefore, it is possi-le that the epithelialmesenchymal interaction remaine
unc ange uring an a ter ea ing, espite t e act t atpa ata connective tissue was p ace in contact wit t e in-ernal aspect of the flap connective tissue. Conserving the
original epithelialmesenchymal interaction may haveonferred a non-keratinized surface to the grafted area.
This report also presents evidence contrary to the con-ept that surgical excision of the epithelial tissue present
over the healed CTG (epithelial abrasion) may result ine ormation o a eratinize sur ace.13 T is urt er sup-
ports the notion that the connective tissue cells from thera t o not p ay a ro e in etermining t e p enotype ohe epithelial tissue on its surface. Therefore, it can be as-
sumed that the tissue that first comes in contact with theCTG, w ic in t e case o a su merge CTG is primari ynon-keratinized mucosa, confers the surface characteristicsof the epithelial surface. This is in agreement with findingsreporte y Maurer et a .,14 who showed that treatment oa ea e CTG wit gingivop asty i not resu t in eratini-zation o non- eratinize epit e ium.
Carnio et al.2 showed that the apico-coronal dimensiono eratinize tissue can e augmente y t e mo i ieapically repositioned flap (MARF), which is a surgicatechnique that involves the simple apical positioning ofa narrow an o eratinize tissue an eaving t e un er-lying connective tissue exposed, in which healing by thesecon ary intention occurs. Wit t e MARF, eratinizetissue (and attached gingiva) can be created in an area thatpreviously presented with a non-keratinized mucosal sur-
ace. T e MARF surgica tec nique essentia y creates anisland of exposed connective tissue whose perimeter iscompletely occupied by keratinized epithelium. Presum-a y, ce migration starts on t e or ers o t e wounand continues toward the center, resulting in the formationo eratinize epit e ium. T is suggests t at w at con ersa keratinized nature to the epithelium developing on theconnective tissue surface is the type of epithelial cells thatare irst present in t e area. Wit t e MARF, t ese primarycolonizing cells are known to be keratinized based on theirorigin and location. Based on the MARF wound-healing
ynamics, it cou e specu ate t at a CTG nee s to eleft exposed if keratinization were to be expected on its sur-

Titanium Particles in Peri-Implant Tissues: Surface Analysis and HistologicResponse
Andrew Tawse-Smith,* Sunyoung Ma,* Allauddin Siddiqi,* Warwick J. Duncan,* Liz Girvan, and Haizal M. Hussaini*
Introduction:The role f bacteria in he tiology of peri-implantitis has been reported in the literature. However, theinfluence of confounding factors on the disease remains unclear. The following case series discusses the presence of metal
particles in iseased peri-implant mucosa.
Case Series: Four patients with peri-implantitis underwent surgical peri-implant herapy and diode laser surface de-ontamination procedures. Peri-implant mucosa was excised under local anesthesia and samples were prepared for histol-
gy, scanning lectron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to valuate peri-implant tissues and
identify eposits of foreign materials. Histologic xamination demonstrated cellular fibrous connective tissue, with or ith-
ut overlying stratified squamous epithelium. An inflammatory infiltrate consisting of a mixture of acute and chronic inflam-
matory cells was bserved. Numerous deposits of ranular foreign material were scattered within the connective tissue
immediately below the epithelium. The presence of metal particles as vident in the SEM and confirmed by EDS. Thesize f titanium particles ranged from to 15mm. Additional particles, such as aluminum, phosphorous, and sulfur, were
also found in some of the samples.
Conclusions: All four cases yielded peri-implant soft-tissue specimens containing particulate black foreign material.SEM and EDS examination of histologic specimens confirmed the presence titanium particles and ther elements in the
peri-implant tissues. hether the presence of titanium particles in the surrounding tissue constitutes a biocompatibility
issue is still a uestion that needs o be learly valuated. Clin Adv Periodontics 2012;2:232-238.

Clinical Outcomes
All affected implant sites showed the expected reduction in
BOP and PD after treatment. Of greater interest, however,
was the LM histologic identification of metallic particulate
foreign bodies within the peri-implant inflammatory tis-
sues of all four cases. This lead to the subsequent analyses
y SEM an EDS presente ere.
LM histologic examination of specimens showed cellu-lar fibrous connective tissue, with or without overlyingstratified squamous epithelium.

CASE REPORT
Treatment Alternative for Root Resorption of an Avulsed Toothn a Growing Child: A Case Report With a 4-Year Follow-Up
Lian Ping Mau,* Iok-Chao Pang, Chuen-Chyi Tseng, Yea-Huey Melody Chen,x nd David L. Cochran*
ntroduction: Dental reatment is ifficult in young patients who present with a root-resorbed permanent tooth and arestill growing. The purpose of this case report is to present a treatment option to delay implant placement until the childs growth
has slowed and the tissues are fully eveloped so that an esthetic implant restoration an be achieved.
Case Presentation:A 9-year-old female patient presented to the clinic after a traffic accident. Avulsion of her maxillaryright central incisor had occurred and the tooth was repositioned uring that mergency visit. The tooth vitality was followed
regularly. Significant root resorption of the tooth was observed 4 years after the accident. The treatment strategy was to retain
the tooth as long as possible until her growth was completed. Root canal therapy was done, and the canal was sealed with cal-
ium hydroxide, mineral trioxide aggregate, and glass ionomer cement. Unfortunately, root resorption continued. When the pa-
tient was 22 years old, thetooth wasextracted, anda standard-sized implant was placedimmediatelywith a bone graft,collagen
membrane, and connective tissue raft augmentation. A temporary restoration was inserted 5 months after implantation. The
efinitive restoration was fabricated3 months afterthe provisional. The dentistsand patient were satisfied withthe final outcome.
Conclusion:Repositioning of an avulsed tooth and conservative endodontic treatment despite root resorption preservedthe adjacent bone in a young female until her growth was complete, allowing for the placement of a standard-sized dental
implant with a natural esthetic restoration. lin Adv Periodontics2012;2:241-247.

Discussion
Root resorption is one of the major complications of dentaltrauma. En o ontic t erapy an c emica con itioning othe root surface after an extended extraoral period has the po-tential to delay the resorptive processes of a replanted tooth.4
However, extraction is t e usua ina resu to root resorption.The treatment options when a tooth has root resorption
in a partia y e entu ous area inc u e: 1) imp ant, 2) ixe
partia enture (FPD), 3) remova e partia enture (RPD),or 4) do not replace the tooth. Longitudinal reports indi-
ate that prosthesis failure is more common and occursmore frequently with RPDs than with FPDs.5 Avivi-Arberan Zar 6 note t at ixe prost eses are associate witthe sacrifice of sound tooth tissue and inherent risks of pulpinjury. The most frequently reported complications inFPD a utment teet are caries (18%) an nee or en -odontic treatment (11%).7 A meta-analysis concerning im-
p ants in partia e entu ism an sing e-toot rep acementindicated survival rates of 93.6% and 97.5% after 6 to7 years, respectively.8 Lindquist and Karlsson9 indicateda mean success rate of traditionalFPDs at 8, 14, and 20 yearsas being 97%, 83%, and 65%, respectively.9 Imp ants o erconsiderable promise for reducing the disadvantages associ-ated with traditional prosthodontic techniques.6 As such,t ey provi e a means o support or enta prost eses wit -out re ying on t e remaining teet . Potentia a utment teetare not traumatized and endodontic intervention is unlikely.
Implant therapy was not considered in this case when theroot resorption was first detected, because the growth pro-cess was not comp ete. Cronin an Oester e10 reporte on

reporte a negative corre ation etween t e averagegrowth rate of the upper and lower anterior facial heightin boys. Boys with a relatively large facial height exhibiteda ig er t an average growt rate o t e ower anteriorfacial height compared to the upper facial height. In girls,a simi ar tren was present. T e in ivi ua average growtrateo t e anterior upper an ower acia eig t maintainsor accentuates the early established facial form.

In this case report, a one-staged immediate implant wasp ace . T e a vantages o imme iate imp ant p acement(IIP) are three-fold: 1) treatment time is significantly re-

CASE REPORT
Management of Retrograde Peri-Implantitis y Apical Resection and GuidedBone Regeneration n Adjacent Maxillary Implants
Tamika N. Thompson-Sloan,* Shilpa Kolhatkar,* nd Monish Bhola*
Introduction: Retrograde peri-implantitis (RPI) is defined as a linically symptomatic periapical lesion hat developsshortly after implant insertion hile the oronal portion of the implant sustains a normal bone-to-implant interface. The eti-
logy f RPI is unclear and may be attributed to several auses. Regardless of etiology, the management f RPI has been
attempted by either resective r regenerative techniques.Case Presentation:A 61-year-old male was screened and evaluated for three maxillary anterior implants placed 10
ears previously. Evaluation included a thorough periodontal and dental exam, radiographs, and cone-beam computed to-
mography. robing depths around all implants ranged from to 4 mm with no bleeding n probing/mobility. The apices f
implants #8 and #9 exhibited radiolucencies, and a draining fistula was associated with implant #8. Treatment onsisted of
sectioning and removal of the affected portion of the implants and collection of a specimen for histopathologic examination.
Demineralized bone matrix putty was placed in the residual bony efects and covered ith a collagen barrier. At 1 year, ra-
iographs revealed both lesions around implants 8 and 9 appeared o be resolving. The lesion associated with implant
9 had a more remarkable radiographic change, because it was smaller than the lesion around implant 8. Both implants
ontinued to unction with no recurrence f fistula formation. Histopathologic analysis was onsistent with the iagnosis
f a periapical ranuloma.
Conclusion: Resection f the apical portion f implants is a viable treatment modality in he management of RPI.Clin Adv Periodontics 2012;2:250-255.

additional regenerative materials has also been docu-mente .8-10,14 Reports in t e iterature on t e managementof these lesions by antibiotics alone have had poor
outcomes.9,14
The other surgical option, which also focuses on retentionof the implant, is resection.4,10,14,15 Resective techniques fol-ow a similar protocol, with the primary difference being
the resection of the infected apical portion of the implant.Balshiet al.4 treated 39 cases with resective therapyand used
ovine bone to graft the defects. A collagen membrane wasp ace over t e arger e ects. T e o ow-up time average4.5 years, with 15 years being the longest follow-up. All
ut one of the 39 implants treated with this techniquewas successfully retained. The protocol of Dahlin et al.15 af-ter resection consisted of irrigation with saline and postop-erative systemic anti iotics. T e 3-year o ow-up o t e two
cases, with two implants total, revealed complete bone fillinto the resected area. The bone levels around the implantswere sta e, an t e patients remaine asymptomatic.
In our case report, after assimilating all diagnostic infor-mation, t e o owing treatment options were iscussewith the patient: 1) implant resection and GBR; 2) implantsurface decontamination and GBR; and 3) removal of im-p ants, GBR, an p acement o new imp ants in 6 mont s.Our clinical approach was similar to the above reports.4,15

Summary
Why is this case new information? jWe highlight the fact that a combination of resective and regenerativetherapy is a viable treatment modality for RPI cases that range in small
to large areas of bone destruction. This combination of treatment can
help salvage implants afflicted with RPI in the anterior areas of the
mouth without compromising the coronal peri-implant esthetics.
What are the keys to successful
management of this case?
jWe achieved a favorable outcome in this case report because we were
able to remove the affected apical portion of the implant and accessand remove the surrounding pathology. The residual defects in bone
were augmented with a bone graft.
What are the primary limitations to
success in this case?
j For implant #8, the bucco-palatal extent of osseous destruction was
significant, with perforation of the palatal cortical plate. The lesion
completely enveloped the apical portion of the implant and extended
approximately half the length of the implant on the palatal aspect.
Implant #9 showed less osseous destruction in the form of a smaller
palatal and apical lesion.j At the 12-month postoperative visit, radiographically, the apex of
implant #8 appeared less radiodense compared to implant #9.
This was attributed to the size and extent of the lesion around implant
#8 along with the bicortical perforation.
