Gingival Recession Treatment utilizing a Connective Tissue Graft


In this video we described a modified double papillae flap in combination with a connective tissue graft.

This is a very predictable technique that can be utilized when the adjacent papillae are large enough, or when we have abundant keratinized tissue surrounding the recession area.

The connective tissue graft was utilized in order to increase the predictability of the treatment outcome and also to increase the thickness of the tissue. Since the affected tooth was a canine the esthetic outcome will be better if we are able to recreate the natural prominence of the soft tissue in this area.

Best,
Ioannis
