Abstract
Aberrant frenula can be an important etiological factor in progressive gingival recession. When separating or removing frenula, augmentation with keratinized tissue is the treatment of choice in most circumstances. A case is described as a mandibular labial frenotomy in combination with a free gingival graft.
