Guided Ortho/Mucongingival Therapy to treat periodontal patients in the esthetic area.
Periodontitis affects not only tooth supporting tissues but also impairs esthetics due to tooth migration in particular in Periodontitis Stage 4 case type 2. Moreover, periodontal therapy may even worse the esthetic appearance due to increased gingival recession. Interdisciplinary approaches are needed to improve esthetics.
We present a new treatment sequence of ortho and mucogingival to reduce recession and black triangles. The idea is to perform gingival grafts during ortho tooth intrusion (not before not after) in order to condition the graft to our convenience.
it will be like a BOPT but instead of tooth preparation me move the teeth with a mucogingival graft.
