Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
Gingival recession is a common condition due to change in position of the gingiva that affects the supporting structures of the teeth results denuded root which affects the esthetics and stimulate hypersensitivity response due to the exposure of the cementum. Coverage of denuded roots is one of the challenging procedures in periodontal mucogingival surgery. Autogenous free gingival graft is a reliable muco gingival surgical procedure for increasing the zone of attached gingiva and for covering areas of gingival recession. This article reports a case of 42yr old male having Miller`s class II Gingival recession treated with free gingival graft. The results showed complete root coverage and increased width of attached gingiva in the recipient site and uneventful healing of donor site.
