Abstract

Mucosal fenestration is clinical entity in which the overlying gingiva or mucosa is also denuded thus the root is exposed to oral cavity.   If left untreated, they may be a source of infection by giving entry to oral pathogen, leading to further progression of periodontal disease. Depending on their site of presence, they may also be a reason of esthetic concern to some patients. This case report describes a situation where a mucosal fenestration developed in the upper left lateral incisor, which was successfully treated with followed by subepithelial connective tissue grafting.
