Summary

Background and Objective: Gingival recession accounts for apical migration of the gingival margin resulting in exposure of the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) and root surface. It is a matter of concern for both patients and dental professionals, especially when exposure of the root surface is linked to deterioration in esthetic appearance and increase in dentinal hypersensitivity which leads to improvements in various surgical techniques that have been used to correct labial gingival recession defects. The present study thus was aimed to evaluate and compare the results of Semilunar Coronally Positioned Flap alone and Semilunar Coronally Positioned Flap in Conjunction with Free Gingival Graft for treatment of Miller Class I and II gingival recession defects in maxillary anterior teeth.

Materials and Method: A total of 20 bilateral Miller's class I and II gingival recession sites in systemically healthy subjects, 20-45 years of age were recruited for this study. Recession sites were divided and randomly allocated to either of the two groups SCPF+FGG (test group) and SCPF (control group) with 10 sites per group to be treated with semilunar coronally positioned flap with free gingival graft technique for SCPF+FGG group and semilunar coronally positioned flap technique alone for SCPF group. Longitudinal alterations during a follow-up period of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months in terms of Probing depth (PD), Recession width (RW), Recession height (RH), Width of keratinized tissue (WKT) and Clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured for both the groups and the values were statistically analysed.
