Regaining pink esthetics with Gingival Veneers – A cosmetic solution
Journal Title: IP International Journal of Periodontology and Implantology - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Esthetics is a significant aspect of dentistry and the color of the gingiva, especially in the anterior region, plays an important role in overall esthetics. Gingival recession is defined as the location of the marginal tissue apical to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ). This condition may be associated with periodontal disease or other related factors like faulty tooth brushing technique, etc. With modern advances in all phases of dentistry, it has provided an opportunity for the patients to maintain their natural esthetics. This case report describes a technique to correct multiple gingival recession with the Gingival composites. Gingival – composites allow the appearance of natural looking gingiva. These new materials provide good esthetics with gingival veneers in the exposed root surfaces.
