Treatment of Adjacent Gingival Recessions with Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft With Pouch and Tunnel Technique for Root Coverage - A Case Series

Abstract Over the past few decades, root covering techniques have undergone constant revision due to the growing demand for better aesthetics. With increased knowledge on the etiopathogenesis of gingival recessions and on the repair/regeneration of tunnelling procedure with subepithelial connective tissue (SCTG) has been possible and more predictable stable result. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of SCTG by employing a pouch and tunnel technique as root coverage procedure. Five patients with maxillary teeth with miller’s class I II gingival recessions were all the sites were treated using SCTG using pouch and tunnelling technique. Patients were presented for a period of 8 months. All the treated teeth showed 100% root coverage at 8 months.
