摘要

Treating gingival recessions is important to satisfy the functional and aesthetic needs of the patients.Among various available techniques to treat gingival recessions,the subepithelial connective tissue graft technique is still considered to be the best despite its inherent disadvantages.The recent innovation utilising periosteum as a pedicle graft to treat gingival recession defects has drawn considerable attention and may provide a viable alternative to subepithelial connective tissue graft.
