A Two-Step Surgical Approach with Flattening of the Root Surface to Treat Localized Gingival Recessions Affecting Mandibular Incisors: A Case Series Report

Abstract: Root coverage in the anterior mandible is challenging due to a thin gingiva, shallow vestibule, and/or high frenulum. This case series reports on the flattening of the root surface to create a new emergence profile conceived with a two-step surgical approach aimed at providing more space for the graft, increasing the thickness of the gingival margin, and getting extra soft tissue in the open area of the recession. A total of 10 patients with recessions affecting the mandibular incisors were treated to evaluate… Show more

“…LPF + SCTG and CAF + SCTG are commonly used surgical approaches to treat deep localized GR in mandibular incisors. However, in the presence of a shallow vestibule, Cairo RT3 GRs or lack of the keratinized tissue (minimum of 2 mm) adjacent to GR results using these approaches has clear limitations [28]. These clinical situations may represent the main indications for the two-step surgical approach with flattening of the root surface and later LCT [28].…”

In this twostep approach, flattening of the root surface creates a new emergence in order to treat anterior mandibular localized GRs in the prominent teeth.…”
