The present study is a human, prospective, randomised controlled clinical trial conducted to explore the outcome of a coronally advanced flap with ossix volumaxTM collagen matrix and connective tissue graft in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recession defects.
The trial is in accordance with the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) criteria, 2010.
Periodontal plastic surgery are surgical procedures performed to prevent or correct anatomic, developmental, traumatic or disease-induced defects of the gingiva, alveolar mucosa or bone. It includes various soft and hard tissue procedures aimed at gingival augmentation, root coverage, correction of mucosal defects at implants, crown lengthening, gingival preservation at ectopic tooth eruption, removal of aberrant frena, prevention of ridge collapse associated with tooth extraction and augmentation of the edentulous ridge.1
Different predisposing anatomic features can result in recession such as position and anatomy of teeth in the dental arch, bony dehiscence, thickness of the alveolar mucosa, muscle pull, orthodontic treatment, thin gingival biotype, buccal prominence of teeth, lack of keratinized tissue, abnormal frenum attachment, or patient related factors such as vigorous brushing or chronic gingival inflammation.2 The migration of the marginal tissue to an apical position may lead to esthetic concern, dentin hypersensitivity, root caries, and cervical wear. Treatment modalities for gingival recession have many influencing factors such as defect dimensions (depth, width), site (maxilla, mandible), defect number (single, multiple), soft tissue anatomy (keratinized tissue quality/quantity; papilla height/width; frenum/ muscle pull; vestibular depth) tooth position etc.
Various surgical techniques for the treatment of recessions includes the use of full or partial thickness flap with various soft tissue grafts such as epithelized free gingival grafts (FGG) or sub-epithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) in conjunction with various types of flaps eg: (envelope, coronally or laterally positioned flap, double pedicle flap (DPF) or tunnelling (TUN) alone or combined with laterally positioned pedicle flaps (LPPF).3 Coronally advanced flap (CAF) with connective tissue graft (CTG) is considered as the gold standard treatment for gingival recession. Commercially available materials for root coverage are expanded Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene (Gore-Tex), polglactin, Collagen membranes like biogide, biomend, resolute, alloderm, collatape etc, collagen matrix such as mucograft, human amniotic membrane, dermagraft, ossix.4
Recently in a case report using platelet concentrate carried on collagen sponge (ossix) showed favourable results.4 Ossix volumax™ has shown De novo bone formation when used in alveolar ridge augmentation procedure.5
Ossix volumax™ (Datum dental) is one such recently identified sugar cross-linked bio programmed collagen matrix. Ossix volumax™ is a volumizing, thick collagen scaffold, featuring glymatrix technology. The properties are thick and expand when wet, excellent handling, easy to use, adapts and adheres to the bone.5 It undergoes rapid ossification (in CT scans and histology after one month).6
Literature search till date has shown no studies regarding the use of type 1 sugar cross-linked collagen membrane for treatment of gingival recession. So, the present study is undertaken with the aim to comparatively evaluate the advantages of ossix volumax collagen membrane with subepithelial connective tissue graft for the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recession defects.

Exclusion Criteria:
Evaluation of root coverage achieved by collagen matrix in conjunction with coronally advanced flap in patients with multiple gingival recession.
Procedure: Ossix volumax collagen matrix
Evaluation of root coverage achieved by connective tissue graft in conjunction with coronally advanced flap in patients with multiple gingival recession
Procedure: Connective Tissue Graft
Under LA horizontal incision is made.Split-full-split thickness flap is elevated.The remaining soft tissue of the anatomic interdental papillae deepithelialized.Coronal advancement of the flap obtained and closed using sling suture.
Under LA parallel incisions is made 1-2 mm first molar to canine.Graft incision 1 mm coronal to the horizontal flap incision.Through this incision designed graft thickness is obtained.The graft obtained between the two horizontal incisions has a 1 mm coronal strip that require depithelisation with a knife and closed using interrupted suture.
gingival recession depth
measured as the distance from the CEJ to the gingival margin.
Time frame: 6 months
Complete root coverage
root coverage regarded as complete with gingival margin located at the level of Cemento Enamel Junction
Time frame: 6 months
Mean root coverage
(Baseline recession depth - 6 month recession depth/Baseline recession depth)\*100
Time frame: 6 months
pocket Probing depth
measured as the distance from the gingival margin to the base of gingival sulcus
Time frame: 6 months
Gingival Recession width
measured as the distance between the mesial gingival margin and distal gingival margin (measurement will be recorded on a horizontal line tangential to the cementoenamel junction).
Time frame: 6 months
Clinical attachment level
measured as Gingival Recession Depth + Probing Depth
Time frame: 6 months
Gingival biotype thickness
measured 3mm apically from the free gingival margin at the mid buccal aspect of the tooth.
Time frame: 6 months
Apico-coronal width of keratinized tissue
) measured as the distance from the mucogingival junction to the gingival margin,with the mucogingival junction location determined using (Schiller's Potassium Iodide Solution).
Time frame: 6 months
Root coverage esthetic score
The Aesthetic evaluation was performed according to the root coverage aesthetic score system (RES). Five Variables evaluated which are as follows: Level of Gingival margin (GM) Marginal Tissue Contour (MTC) Soft Tissue Texture (STT) Mucogingival Junction(MJ) alignment Gingival Colour (GC) The values ranges between 0 - 6.Higher the value better is the outcome.
Time frame: 6 months
Plaque index
It is measured by using UNC 15 probe.The values lie between 0 - 3.Higher the outcome the prognosis will be poor.
Time frame: 6 months
Gingival index
It is measured by using UNC 15 probe.The values lie between 0 - 3.Higher the outcome the prognosis will be poor.
Time frame: 6 months
Gingival Bleeding index
It is measured by using UNC 15 probe.The values lie between 0 - 1. And presence or absence of bleeding is evaluated.
Time frame: 6 months
