Abstract

Gingival recession can lead to aesthetic deformities and dentin hypersensitivity, because of an open root surface, and loss of interdental papilla (called black triangle). Not all case of gingival recession can be treated with periodontal surgery. According to Miller's classification, the gingival recession divided into four classes. In Miller's class III and IV, gingival recession can be treated using gingival mask. The aim of this article is to introduce the treatment of gingival recession using gingival mask. Gingival mask can improve aesthetically of gingival recession defect. Gingival mask can also eliminate hypersensitive dentin due to denuded root surface. Gingival mask was a good treatment option in advanced gingival recession and achieving esthetic results and patient satisfaction.
