COMBINING A LATERALLY MOVED FLAP IN CLOSING LOCAL GINGIVAL RECESSION WITH THE USE OF STRAUMANN EMDOGAIN GEL

Abstract

So far there is no universal solution regarding treatment of gingival recession. The author proposes his own version of updating one of the methods of treating gingival recession, namely a laterally moved flap with the addition of enamel matrix proteins. In the author’s opinion, this method is the least invasive and there are the least contraindications to it.
