Conference summary
This conference will address the possible indications for increasing gingival volume using free gingival graft as a surgical treatment for gingival recessions in the 5th sextant.
Using classical literature, from a historical perspective to the most recent literature, the topic will be approached in order to try to generate a consensus on the possible indications of this surgical technique in the treatment of these clinical situations, in the light of current knowledge.
