Sažetak
In the last years the treatment of non-inflammatory periodontal diseases has greatly
changed. Apico-coronal dimension of gingival tissue is not considered to be of utmost
importance, but significance of tissue thickness over each tooth is stressed. Purpose of
this study was to show results of conservative and surgical treatment of gingival recession.
Sample consisted of two groups of subjects, which have been treated in one of stated
ways during ten years. The data was obtained on the beginning and after ten years
of recall. Both groups showed increased dimension of keratinized gingiva during observed
time with decrease of gingival recession, plaque- and gingival index. It is considered
that treatment should start with conservative measures with necessary motivation
of the patients. If it does not show improvement, one should consider best surgical method
available for each patient. Clinical results show success in both groups, meaning
that treatment was properly decided on.
