  • Title: Covering denuded maxillary root surfaces with the subepithelial connective tissue graft.
    Author: Levine RA.
    Journal: Compendium; 1991 Aug; 12(8):568, 570, 572 passim. PubMed ID: 1809511.
    Abstract:
    The subepithelial connective tissue graft is an esthetic gingival grafting procedure used to cover denuded single and multiple surfaces primarily of maxillary anterior and bicuspid teeth. A clinical study of 10 private practice periodontal patients is presented with results of 97.04% root coverage achieved on average in 21 sites treated, which had an average recession of 3.86 mm. The technique and the rationale for its use are presented with documented case report results.
