presented in this article has the following advantages
(1) There is no tension on the flap after coronally repositioning it.
(2) There is no shortening of the vestibule.
(3) The papillae mesial and distal to the tooth being treated remain cosmetically unchanged.
(4) No sutures are needed because of the lack of tension of the tissue being coronally positionedwith Dr Dennis TarnowAfter 10 days and

VAS score on ≠13 : 0Before / Afterwe have also a study named “Root Hypersensitivity Experienced By Patients with Miller Class I Buccal Gingival Recession Undergoing Semilunar Coronally Repositioned Flap” and presented at 13th International Conference on Periodontal Research, Ljubljana, Slovenia,In conclusion, successfully root coverage by using semilunar coronally repositioned flap technique has not only the advantages of surgical procedures (minimal trauma, no sutures) and high rate of root coverage success, but also positive effects on root hypersensitivity treatment.
