description | This case report describes Clark’s technique of vestibuloplasty to treat shallow vestibule and, in addition, the use of free gingival autograft to augment attached gingiva to treat Miller’s recession. Vestibuloplasty is performed to deepen a shallow vestibule. Different vestibuloplasty techniques are used to deepen the shallow vestibule by modifying the soft tissue attachment. A 29-year-old male presented to the Department of Periodontics and Oral Implantology, Regional Dental College, Guwahati, India with the chief complaint of bleeding from the lower anterior along with the gingival recession. Maintenance of regular oral hygiene was an added hindrance. The combined technique of vestibuloplasty and use of free gingival graft was performed to achieve dual benefits of increasing the vestibular depth and attainment of a thick gingival phenotype. |
