Re: New Treatment For Receding Gums: No Pain, Lots Of Gain

[Anonymous]

Gingival recession is an intriguing and complex phenomenon. Patients frequently are disturbed by recession owing to sensitivity and esthetics. Many techniques have been introduced to treat gingival recession, including connective tissue grafting, or CTG; various flap designs; orthodontics. Guided tissue regeneration, or GTR also can be used to treat recessions, particularly when patients are reluctant to consent to providing palatal gingiva donor sites.
