Surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy (SFOT) has been introduced to expand the supporting bone and make such movements safer, but there is limited information on how to manage the gums during these procedures. This report describes a surgical approach that combines SFOT with a commonly used gum surgery technique called a coronally advanced flap. The procedure focuses only on the area where teeth are being moved, applies well\u2010established principles of gum surgery to ensure stable healing, and uses a soft\u2010tissue substitute to help protect the graft and thicken the gums. This technique offers a structured way to address both bone and gum deficiencies at the same time during orthodontic treatment. While promising, further clinical studies are needed to confirm its long\u2010term effectiveness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/cap.70078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,18]],"date-time":"2026-06-18T10:52:09Z","timestamp":1781779929000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Coronally advanced flap\u2010assisted surgically facilitated orthodontics: A technical note"],"prefix":"10.1002","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2253-3927","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gonzalo","family":"Blasi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology School of Dentistry International University of Catalonia  Barcelona Spain"},{"name":"Department of Advanced Oral Sciences and Therapeutics Division of Periodontics University of Maryland Baltimore School of Dentistry  Baltimore Maryland USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0801-8523","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lory","family":"Abrahamian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Periodontology School of Dentistry International University of Catalonia  Barcelona Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s1073\u20108746(96)80039\u20109"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600\u2010051x.1998.tb02440.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2017.160781"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002\u20109416(78)90204\u2010x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2007.02.054"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14219\/jada.archive.2008.0184"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mod.2002.119804"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2319\/040811\u2010250.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2319\/040815\u2010235.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/prd.12059"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00056\u2010019\u201000196\u20104"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2012.09.018"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jper.19\u20100037"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_9_15_1","first-page":"146","article-title":"Surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy: optimizing dentoalveolar bone and space appropriation for facially prioritized interdisciplinary dentofacial therapy","volume":"39","author":"Mandelaris GA","year":"2018","journal-title":"Compend Contin Educ Dent"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_9_16_1","first-page":"9","article-title":"Rapid orthodontics with alveolar reshaping: two case reports of decrowding","volume":"21","author":"Wilcko WM","year":"2001","journal-title":"Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.sodo.2015.06.004"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_9_18_1","first-page":"3","article-title":"The regional acceleratory phenomenon: a review","volume":"31","author":"Frost HM","year":"1983","journal-title":"Henry Ford Hosp Med J"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2319\/031512\u2010224.1"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2013.11.019"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11607\/prd.4562"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joms.2009.04.095"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joms.2009.04.124"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2012.03.028"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajodo.2012.12.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2000.71.9.1506"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jcpe.12945"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jcpe.13487"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_29_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600\u2010051x.2009.01398.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_30_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jper.70073"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_31_1","unstructured":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Guidelines for ALARA\u2014as low as reasonably achievable.
