The apical migration of the junctional epithelium with exposure of the root surfaces is known as gingival recession. Gingival recession can be reversed using a variety of root covering procedures. A semilunar incision is performed parallel to the facial tissue's free gingival edge in order to create a semilunar coronally positioned flap (Tarnow procedure), which is then coronally positioned over the denuded root. In comparison to other coronally positioned flap techniques, this one has the advantage of tension free flap, shrinking the vestibule, and not interfering with the papillae that already present. This case report evaluates the efficacy and application of this method for treating gingival recession.
