Streszczenie

Pokrywanie recesji przed leczeniem ortodontycznym to wciąż kontrowersyjny temat.  Planując leczenie, lekarz ortodonta musi powziąć decyzję, czy przemieszczanie zęba wpłynie na powiększenie recesji i procedurę chirurgiczną należy zaplanować przed leczeniem ortodontycznym, czy też można ją odroczyć do czasu jego zakończenia. Celem pracy jest przedstawienie aktualnych danych z piśmiennictwa uzupełnionych sytuacjami klinicznymi recesji pojedynczych i mnogich jako próba określenia właściwej sekwencji terapeutycznej.

 

Abstract

Surgical root coverage  before undertaking orthodontic treatment is still a controversial subject. In planning the treatment the orthodontist must undertake the decision as to whether or not, the tooth movement will influence increase of the recession. Should the surgical procedure be planned before the orthodontic treatment or should it be postponed until the completion of treatment? The aim of this study is to present up-to-date data from the literature, supplemented by clinical individual and multiple situations, as an attempt to describe the appropriate sequence of therapy.
