No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Several surgical techniques have been proposed to correct recession defect and attain root coverage. Though, the majority were executed on Miller Class I and II recession defects. Moreover, Analysis of literature revealed only a few studies that treated miller class III recession defects.

In the current study, a new modification in the free gingival graft is proposed to provide the patient with more esthetic outcome, less pain and postoperative trauma. Likewise, the proposed graft modification will combined both FGG and CTG benefits, overcome the limitations of the FGG and enhances the advantages of CTG.
