Standardized photography was used to determine the presence of "creeping attachment" after free autogenous graft procedures on localized areas of root recessions. "Creeping attachment" occurred in all seven experimental teeth with an average of 0.89 +/- 0.46 mm and a range of 0.38--0.61 mm during a period of 1 year. The results encourage the use of grafts over exposed root surface in an attempt for gingival coverage.
