Free Gingival and Connective Tissue Graft: Split Mouth Case of Root Coverage
Journal Title: Journal of Dental Health and Oral Research - Year 2023, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Gingival recession or soft tissue recession is defined as the displacement of the gingival margin apical to the Cemento-Enamel Junction (CEJ) of a tooth or the platform of a dental implant. This condition is attributable to the loss of periodontal tissues, in particular gingiva, periodontal ligament, root cementum or bone tissue at dental sites and mucosa and bone surrounding dental implants. In order to provide a more accurate definition of this condition, the term Periodontal Recession instead of gingival recession had been proposed. At present, these terms are used in the same way. Depending on the aetiology, extent and accompanying symptoms in each case there may be significant differences in the severity of any gingival recession.
