Severe gingival damage after polysiloxane impression procedures. A case report.
This is a report of a 38-year-old white female who developed severe gingival damage after impression for a full crown with vinyl polysiloxane material. Treatment of the lesion consisted of a gingival graft placed directly on bone. A one-year follow-up showed significant re-establishment of a healthy gingival complex.
