The effect of the interproximal creeping attachment in aesthetic site after root coverage surgery with VISTA...

Gingival recession is a common manifestation in most populations. The mechanism by which gingival recession occurs is not well understood, but it seems to be complex and multifactorial. The main etiological factors are the accumulation of dental plaque biofilm with the resulting inflammatory periodontal diseases and mechanical trauma due to faulty oral hygiene techniques, especially in thin biotypes. This case report describes the treatment of a vestibular recession associated with interdental bone loss, with the VISTA technique associated with a connective tissue graft. The case was evaluated at 3, 9 months and 48 months after the surgery clinically complete root coverage and increased thickness of keratinized tissue were achieved, and the interdental papilla was augmented improving the soft tissue quality for future orthodontic treatment. VISTA technique associated with a connective tissue graft to reconstruct vertically papilla is a promising alternative for minimally invasive treatment and stable after 4 years.
