Abstract
Purpose: Anterior maxilla is a high esthetic demand region. Reconstruction of the soft tissue loss after pathologic resection needs special techniques.
Materials and methods: This article describes the novel use of vascularized interpositional periosteal connective tissue flap of palate (VIP-CT) for reconstruction after resection of long-lasting pyogenic granuloma in anterior maxilla with underlying bone resorption in interdental region.
Results: Good esthetic results both in labial gingiva and interdental region were obtained.
Conclusion: VIP-CT flap is an ideal option for reconstruction of the pathologic lesions that affect the anterior maxilla and create pathologic space in interdental region.
