Abstract
JUAREZ MEMBRENO, I.A.; THIERS LEAL, S.A. and LAGOS LAGOS, A.C.. Non-carious cervical lesion and gingival recession treatment using a coronally positioned flap. Avances en Periodoncia [online]. 2015, vol.27, n.2, pp.63-66. ISSN 2340-3209. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1699-65852015000200002.
Non-carious cervical lesion and Gingival Recession treatment using a Coronally Positioned Flap. The case developed below is intended to show the clinical outcome of a thick gingival biotype patient who underwent a periodontal surgery using the coronally positioned flap (CPF) technique in the treatment of a non-carious cervical lesion and single gingival recession in the anterior upper sector. A clinician should not forget that each case is different, therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the size and thickness of the periodontal tissue, the type and size of gingival recession, especially when non carious cervical lesions are present. In view of the results, we consider that in thick gingival biotypes, CPF is effective providing a significant reduction of an individual recession in the anterior upper sector and a non-carious cervical lesion treatment in the short term.
Keywords : Gingival recession; no carious cervical lesion; coronally positioned flap.
