Abstract
Facial and lingual flaps were reflected on 23 patients who required an apically positioned flap procedure. Immediately after suturing, the distance from the flap margin to the crest of the alveolar process was recorded by routine pocket probing techniques. Root coverage was about 2 mm, significantly greater than the coverage previously recommended.Keywords
