[Frenectomy associated with a triangular gingival graft].

In periodontal therapy, frenectomy is indicated when the frenum exerts tension on the gingival margin and interferes with proper oral hygiene. The procedure is also employed when the frenum prevents closure of a diastema during orthodontic therapy. Frenectomy should be done after the canines have erupted and before retention is started to prevent separation of the teeth. For an improved surgical and cosmetic result, the authors propose a triangular-shaped gingival graft after the frenum has been excised. The advantage of the procedure is to create an area of attached gingiva and enhance healing.

[Posterior bite collapse. 2. Therapeutic proposals].

In the treatment of posterior bite collapse, the orthodontic phase consists of three steps: uprighting of molar teeth, leveling of the mandibular arch and closure of anterior diastemas. During and after orthodontic therapy, the maintenance of periodontal health is important. For patients in which there is a reduced periodontium, splinting should be accomplished after the teeth are moved into their desired position.
