What Is the Subperiosteal Recession Coverage Technique?

The subperiosteal recession coverage technique is a minimally invasive surgical approach to gingival recession defects: the soft tissue is elevated as a tunnel in the subperiosteal plane, and a graft can be placed beneath it to cover the exposed root surfaces. The SRC instruments in this set (#1 to #5, with short and long curved versions for the left and right) are shaped for that tunnel preparation.
