On exposure of root surface, there will be root sensitivity, pain, root caries, poor aesthetic,and ultimately tooth loss. There are various techniques used to treat gingival recession. In this case report,a laterally positioned pedicle graft technique was used to treat gingival recession. A 37-year-old male cameto the Department of Periodontics, with a chief complaint of sensitivity in lower left front teeth regions.On clinical examination, there was Miller Class III in 33 with the presence of generalized mild plaque andcalculus.

So scaling and root planing wasperformed to reduce inflammation and after 4 weeks, lateral positioned pedicle graft technique was doneunder infiltration local anesthesia. The subject was instructed to maintain oral hygiene. After 2 months, itwas found significant coverage of root with keratinized gingiva. He was very satisfied with the result.
