TREATMENT OF MULTIPLE GINGIVAL RECESSIONS BY MCAF TECHNIQUE

Treatment of multiple gingival recessions by MCAF technique combined with the use of a three-dimensional collagen matrix of equine origin

The case involved a 38-year-old male patient, a nonsmoker, not suffering from periodontitis, who presented to the office for the resolution of a gingival recession in element 23, which had been treated previously with composite material. Clinical examination showed multiple recessions in the 4 quadrants associated with non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs). In agreement with the patient, it was agreed to treat the type I gingival recessions of elements 23-25 with a mucogingival surgery procedure that combined the MCAF coronal placement flap technique and the grafting of a 3-dimensional collagen matrix of equine origin.
