    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Poorly fitting dentures can cause gum recession. Surgical flaps successfully repaired exposed roots and increased attached gingiva in two cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Periodontology
    • Prosthodontics

    Background:

    • Mandibular removable partial dentures (RPDs) can contribute to localized lingual gingival recession.
    • Gingival recession presents challenges, particularly in the lingual mandibular anterior region due to access and muscle pull limitations.

    Observation:

    • Two clinical cases involving lingual gingival recession potentially linked to RPDs were analyzed.
    • The specific anatomical challenges of the lingual mandibular anterior region were noted.

    Findings:

    • Both full and partial thickness, lingually laterally rotated pedicle flaps were employed for root coverage.
    • Successful root coverage and increased width of keratinized attached gingiva were achieved in both cases.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Surgical intervention using specific flap techniques can effectively manage gingival recession caused by RPDs.
    • These techniques offer a viable solution for restoring root coverage and improving periodontal health in challenging anatomical areas.
