Resumen
Abstract
Gingival recession is the most common mucogingival defect, characterized by apical
migration of the gingival margin from the cementoenamel junction and root exposure. Several
surgical techniques are reported for the treatment of gingival recession. Here we present a
comparison of the conventional (coronally advanced flap) and semilunar coronally positioned
flap techniques for root coverage in teeth with cervical abrasion restored with pink resin that
mimics the color of the gingiva. Although the conventional technique is more predictable, we
found that both techniques were effective in achieving satisfactory and esthetic root coverage.
