A free gingival graft is done to treat recession. Recession can be the result of toothbrushing, clenching , or malocclusion
Thank you for your question.
The treatment depends on the proper diagnosis and can range from changing the method of brushing and tooth brush to mucogingival correction surgeries or grafting surgeries with occlusal corrections and overall health support as well as changing lifestyle

Sometimes no treatment is necessary. However with four or more mm of recession and 1 or less mm of attachment it’s best to do an autograft gum graft to replace the lost tissue. In some cases pinhole techyis used with a collagen membrane to varying degrees of success
