Consecutive Root Coverage Using the Single-incision Technique From the Palate with High Acceptance and Little Patient Morbidity

Introduction: Connective tissue can be obtained from the palate using several methods. The single-incision technique may be applied to allow primary intention healing and minimize patient discomfort. Aim: This case presentation describes the consecutive root coverage procedures using the single-incision technique from the palate. Materials and Methods: In this report, two patients were treated successively for gingival recessions. A coronally positioned flap combined with a connective tissue graft using one incision line was applied to achieve root coverage. The treated sites showed complete root coverage without probing defects or significant complications. Discussion and Conclusions: The single-incision technique may be a treatment option for harvesting the grafting material with higher acceptance and minimal complications.
