Treatment of Gingival Recessions Class II Miller in Lower Jaw with Coronary Advanced Flap and Connective Tissue Graft-Case Report

Abstract

Background/Aim: Gingival recession is defined as apical migration if the gingival margin associated with exposure of the cement - enamel junction. The gingival recessions are major esthetic concern in patients at any age. In cases with esthetic and functional considerations mucogingival surgery is indicated. The advantages of CAF with or without CTG are making this procedure highly recommended in the esthetic zone. The results are predictable about root coverage, widening if the gingival tissues and esthetics. The aim of the recent case report is to demonstrate the succesfull combination of coronally advanced flap with connective tissue graft in the treatment of wide and deep gingival recessions.
