Recobrimento radicular associado à enxertia de substituto mucoso Mucoderm Straumann - relato de caso

Abstract

Periodontal recession corresponds to loss of attachment, resulting in a lower position of the free gingival margin, on any part of the exposed root surface. There are some surgical techniques and some types of grafts that are used in root coverage, aiming to restore the aesthetics and, functionally, the structures of the periodontium. In this case report, the Mucoderm ® Straumann biomaterial was used as a mucosal substitute, associated with the Zucchelli and De Sanctis surgical technique, in multiple recessions, RT1 classes by Cairo, et al. The patient reported esthetic dissatisfaction and sensitivity in teeth 16 and 34. Six months after the surgical procedure, an excellent clinical and esthetic result was observed.
