Abstract:

Soft tissue grafting used to describe a surgical treatment procedure for correction of defects in morphology, position, amount of the soft tissue and gingival recession. Gingival recession can be defined as the exposure of the root surface. It is a small inadequate zone of attached gingival. Forces of muscles, malocclusion, prominent teeth, frenum inserting near the gingival margin, high muscle attachment, shallow vestibulum, oral habits and a bone resorption are often considered indication for muco-gingival surgery. Miller class I, II has a good prognosis for muco-gingival surgery treatment. During the presentation and suggestion, different deviations from what is commonly considered as normal in the muco-gingival region will be shown and it will be discussed whether surgery is advisable or not. The presentation will cover the prevalence, etiology and pathogenesis of recession and methods of treatment will be discussed.
