PubMed ID (PMID): 22254220Pages 23-27, Language: EnglishPini-Prato, Giovan Paolo / Cozzani, Giuseppe / Magnani, Cristina / Baccetti, TizianoThis case report describes the healing of gingival recessions on mandibular incisors resulting from orthodontic treatment of a deep bite malocclusion at a 30-year follow-up observation. The marked improvement in the severe recessions was a consequence of the elimination of the direct trauma, orthodontic intrusion of the affected teeth, and subsequent creeping attachment over time. No periodontal treatment was performed before or after orthodontic treatment.
