PubMed ID (PMID): 22254225Pagine 49-58, Lingua: IngleseGeurs, Nico C. / Romanos, Alain H. / Vassilopoulos, Philip J. / Reddy, Michael S.The aim of this study was to evaluate interdental papillary reconstruction based on a micronized acellular dermal matrix allograft technique. Thirty-eight papillae in 12 patients with esthetic complaints of insuffi cient papillae were evaluated. Decreased gingival recession values were found postoperatively (P .001). Chi-square analysis showed signifi cantly higher postoperative Papilla Index values (chi-square = 43, P .001), further supported by positive symmetry statistical analysis values (positive kappa and weighted kappa values). This procedure shows promise as a method for papillary reconstruction.
