dc.description.abstractThe use of root coverage procedures to treat gingival recession defects, a common periodontal condition, is an important aspect of periodontal regenerative therapy. The synergistic relationship between vascular configuration and involved tissues is the most important factor in soft tissue graft success. The present case reports the clinical effectiveness of Gingival Unit Graft (GUG) for the management of Miller's class III gingival recession.Clinical parameters like Probing depth, recession depth, keratinized tissue width and clinical attachment level were measured at baseline and postoperative 6 months. Percentage of defect coverage was evaluated at postoperative 6 months. Healing was uneventful and 3mm root coverage was observed with 1mm residual recession and increase in keratinized gingiva after 6 months follow up. Free soft tissue autografts such as gingival unit transfers can be used along with bio-adhesives such as cyanoacrylates for predictable results in the management of recession defects.en_US
