However, the resulting coverage rate and volume stability are generally lower when using tissue graft substitutes as compared to autogenous tissue grafts. A new volumestable porcine collagen matrix has recently been introduced for soft tissue thickening around dental implants; however, use of this matrix in recession coverage has not been reported. This case series demonstrates a novel surgical technique and reports clinical outcomes (7 to 12 months) of a minimally invasive root coverage procedure that uses vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access in combination with a volume-stable collagen matrix (VISTA-X).
