Gingival recession is an exposed root surfaces that caused by shifting gingiva toward
apical, and often causes problem. Gingival recession can occur locally or generally at
all teeth causing dentin hypersensitive and susceptible to caries. Other problem is the

recession depends on the severity and causes of recession. Treatments addressed to
overcome the aesthetic problem and hypersensitivity of dentin. Mucogingival surgery
is preferred to position the flap coronally. Non surgical techniques have been
developed to solve the problem of aesthetic and hypersensitive dentin. The method is
conducted to using of artificial gingiva on the recession area. Regular control is
