Perio pod 6 - The coronally advanced flap, combined with a connective tissue graft and EMD, to treat gingival recessions. Camille Vrijghem

Recessions in de anterior mandibular region after previous orthodontic treatment are a well-known complication. Prevalence according to Vasconcelos and colleagues goes up to 10,3% and is predominantly present on the central incisors. When, in these cases, the buccal bone is missing, first choice of treatment is orthodontic retrusion. In this patient, a recession type 2 (Caïro 2011), there was not enough mandibular bone to retract the lower central incisors orthodontically. Therefore, the recession was covered with a coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft and EMD. (Stefanini M. & Zuchelli G.)
