Abstrakt: Gingival recession is the exposure of root surfaces due to apical migration of the gingival tissue margins. The principal objectives of treating gingival recession are to achieve better esthetics and reduce hypersensitivity. Various soft tissue augmentation techniques such as coronally advanced flap, free mucosal graft, subepithelial connective tissue graft, guided tissue regeneration, laterally positioned flaps etc are used for treating the same. The gingival phenotype and other local factors play important role in the results obtained by these treatments. This case reports show the stable results obtained using subepithelial connective tissue graft technique. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
