Esthetic Root Coverage of Miller’s Class II Gingival Recession Using Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft: a Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
Marginal tissue recession is a common feature amongst Andaman & Nicobar population with high standards of oral hygiene as well as amongst population with poor oral hygiene. Recession is frequently associated with aesthetic concerns, fear of tooth loss, and root hypersensitivity. Several etiological factors that may account for it are: traumatic tooth brushing, malpositioned tooth, periodontal disease, frenum insertions, restoration with subgingival overhangs, orthodontic movement and bone dehiscence. According to Miller, cases with Class I and II show complete recession coverage whereas cases with class III are only capable of partial coverage. This case report presents a clinically successful treatment of Miller's class II gingival recession using Subepithelial connective tissue graft as a donor source for root coverage.
