📝Abstract

Thinning of gingival and recession can often be an embarrassing esthetic problem to the patient. We have heard of umpteen restorative techniques using biocompatible grafts. Silicone is tested for its esthetic and functional durability in the human body. Silicone elastomers are used in periodontal esthetic management with great success.

Keywords: Gingival recession, biocompatible grafts, Silicones, Periodontal esthetic management
