Abstract

Background: Gingival recession is a common mucogingival condition characterized by apical displacement of the gingival
margin leading to root surface exposure. Surgical root coverage aims to restore the gingival contour, improve esthetics, and
reduce hypersensitivity. The semilunar coronally advanced flap, described by Tarnow (1986), is a minimally invasive
technique indicated for shallow isolated recessions with adequate keratinized tissue.
