Prevalence of Gingival Recession in Dental Students from the Federal University of Juiz de Fora - Brazil

ABSTRACT: Gingival recessions are characterized by partial denudation of the root surface due to apical displacement of the gingival margin from the amelocemental junction and may be localized or generalized. The aim of this study was evaluate the prevalence of gingival recession and dentine hyperse...
