Abstract

  Gingival recession is a common clinical finding and there are various surgical treatment procedures for its correction. Overtime many improvements in techniques and designing of the flap have been introduced to improve healing of the tissue for more aesthetic and predictable results. Pouch and tunnel connective tissue graft is one such alternative technique for treating multiple adjacent teeth gingival recessions especially for areas with thin gingival biotype. The case report presents the use of this technique for treating gingival recession in multiple maxillary anterior teeth which resulted in excellent root coverage with improved gingival biotype.

 Keywords: Gingival Recession; Root Coverage; Pouch and Tunnel.
