title: [Current therapy of gingival recession].
abstract: The muco-gingival surgery represents one of the facet of periodontal surgery. The gingival recessions, characterized by a total attachmentless uncovering the root surface, become an esthetic and painful problem for our patients. The recessions can be treated by different surgical procedures. After a review of the etiologic factors and of the different type of wound healing, the authors describe and illustrate respectively the gingival graft for root coverage and the laterally positioned flap.
