In general, the edentulous area prevents a correct relationship between pontic-ridge, and it unleashes an aesthetic absence in the anterior front cases. To achieve this kind of defects we could use different kinds of techniques to modify a type III Seibert defect (1) through a connective tissue graft and an ovate pontic.

Keywords : Seibert´s Classiffication; connective tissue graft; Cantilever.
