[Free mucosal grafting--clinical experiences].
Free mucosal grafting is a simple, safe and predictable procedure. It is indicated in the treatment of progressive recessions in patients with reduced attached gingiva, in recurrent traumatic marginal lesions inspite of correct tooth brushing, in refractory dental neck hypersensitivity and for cosmetic reasons in patients with recessions. In these situations advancement grafting is done as a secondary procedure. To prevent the potential occurrence of recessions free mucosal grafting may also be indicated prophylactically before orthodontic or prosthetic management. The management concept in patients with recessions as well as the indications of the procedure, the technique used at our department and aspects of planning surgery are discussed.
