Abstract

Pouch and tunnel technique with connective tissue graft have been used successfully in the treatment of gingival recession. Currently, connective tissue grafting is a reliable treatment for esthetic root coverage. This procedure enhances the healing of the covered root surface, increases the thickness of the soft tissue and improves esthetics.
