Background: Aesthetics is becoming more of a concern for patients in the current era of dentistry. Gingival recession is a clinical condition related to patient aesthetics and frequently encountered complaints. Gingival recession is a condition where the root surface is exposed due to apical migration from the gingival tissue margin to the cementoenamel junction. There are various types of treatments to treat patient’s complaints of gingival recession, both non-surgical and surgical. One of the treatments that can be chosen is the coronally advanced flap technique using a graft originating from the patient himself, which will be discussed further in this case report.
Purpose: The purpose of writing this article is to describe a coronally advanced flap technique using a connective tissue graft for root coverage in gingival recession
Case: A 21-year-old male patient came to the periodontics specialist clinic of RSGM Universitas Airlangga Surabaya complaining of wanting to treat the upper right gum that looked raised and sometimes felt sore. The patient had used braces and had them removed about 1 year ago. The patient brushes his teeth in the morning when taking a shower and at night before going to bed. The patient does not smoke, has no history of systemic diseases, and has no allergies.
Case Management: The treatment plan involved dental health education, scaling root planning, and evaluation, followed by coronally advanced flap + CTG. After surgical therapy, the maintenance phase was continued with periodic checks.
