“…They reported elevating a full-thickness flaps one tooth away from the defect and rotating it to cover the recession (Grupe and Warren, 1956). In 1966, Grupe modified this technique to a submarginal incision on donor site (Grupe, 1966). In 1964, Staffilena used partial thickness flap to protect donor site from recession (Edward, 2006).…”

Gingival recession is a complex phenomenon resulting from the apical migration of the junctional epithelium with exposure of root surfaces which may cause hypersentivity problems and may also pose esthetic concerns for the patient, thus may be a major therapeutic challenge to the clinician.Though there are many surgical techniques advocated to treat recession, root coverage using Lateral Positioned Flap technique as compared to other technique have many potential benefits for patients with localized recession defects. The lateral positioned flap is commonly used to cover isolated, denuded roots that have adequate donor tissue lateral and vestibular depth. By using the tissue adjacent to the recession defect, the lateral positioned flap allows for correction of the defect without the discomfort encountered during other grafting techniques associated with palatal donor sites. This procedure is a time efficient, less invasive, and highly aesthetic treatment option for managing isolated recession defects.This article highlights a case report in which a lateral positioned flap technique was used for root coverage of a labially placed tooth which should have ideally been corrected by orthodontic treatment but due to patient's unwillingness, root coverage procedure was attempted to resolve the esthetic concern of the patient.

“…Soft tissue pedicle (sliding or double) grafts are designed to create or augment the attached gingiva, deepen the vestibule, or eliminate frenum involvement. [15][16][17][18] To increase the success rate of root coverage, many clinicians have attempted to combine different procedures. 24 This study included sliding pedicle graft and vestibule deepening techniques simultaneously to achieve the goal.…”

Abstract:Objective: The treatment of buccal gingival recession (GR) is a common requirement due to aesthetic concern, root caries and /or root hypersensitivity. The purpose of this case study was to evaluate the success and predictability of sliding pedicle graft in combination with the vestibular deepening technique for the management of Miller's Class III gingival recession. Methods: A Saudi male adult, aged 30 years was selected having Miller's Class III GR 5.0 mm on the lower left central incisor. Nonsurgical periodontal therapy was provided for the patient to ensure periodontal health. Sliding pedicle graft along with the vestibule deepening technique was applied. Patient was followed up monthly for 2 months. Results: Root coverage 60.0% and clinical attachment gain 3 mm were evident following 2 months of periodontal surgery. Conclusion: Sliding pedicle graft in combination of vestibular deepening may be applied as an effective technique to increase the width of attached gingiva and treat Class III Miller's type of gingival recession. Long term continuous monitoring of the case would be conclusive.

“…When the lateral movement is both mesial and distal to the defect, the flap is called a double papilla flap. The pedicle graft was the first periodontal plastic surgery procedure proposed in 1956 for root coverage by Grupe and Warren as a laterally repositioned full thickness flap [3].…”

Gingival recession is the most common mucogingival deformity and should be treated at its earliest detection. Exposed root surfaces are more likely to develop root sensitivity and root caries and pose esthetic problems. Among various procedures, laterally positioned pedicle graft (LPG) is widely used successfully to cover Miller class-I and Class-II recession defects. The main advantages of the laterally positioned pedicle graft are that it is relatively easy and less time-consuming. It produces excellent esthetic results and no second surgical site is involved for donor harvesting. Thus the present study was undertaken to understand the efficacy of lateral pedicle grafts in Miller's class I gingival recession defects.
