Maxillary gingival recession, especially with a high smile line, can be aesthetically concerning. A coronally positioned flap technique effectively improved the patient's smile esthetics in this case.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Periodontology
  • Esthetic Dentistry

Background:

  • Gingival recession in the maxillary anterior region can negatively impact patient esthetics, particularly those with high smile lines.
  • Restorative and esthetic dental treatments aim to improve both function and appearance.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with significant maxillary anterior gingival recession, causing esthetic concerns due to a high smile line.
  • The recession impacted the overall harmony and appearance of the smile.

Findings:

  • The coronally positioned flap technique was employed to address the gingival recession.
  • This surgical approach successfully covered the exposed root surfaces and restored the gingival margin height.

Implications:
