BACKGROUND: Gingival recession (GR), often an aesthetic concern to the patient, is also associated with root sensitivity, and has a predilection to root caries. The purpose of this case series was to evaluate a bioabsorbable collagen membrane for root coverage with guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedure, in localized gingival recession defects. METHODS: Three cases presented in this case series, showing a localized Miller’s Class I or Class II gingival recession were treated for root coveragewith GTR-based collagen membrane. The graft was completely covered with coronally advanced flap and followed up to 6th month postoperatively. RESULTS: Six months following the procedure, the root coverage was found to be 100% in all three cases. The root coverage obtained appeared structurally and functionally stable. CONCLUSION: It may be concluded that the resorbable collagen membrane could be reliably used in the treatment of gingival recession.
