Two female patients, presenting gingival recessions at the maxillary frontal teeth, were treated. Patient #1 had a discrepancy among the central maxillary incisors\u2019 gingival margin, and tooth UL1 needed to be restored. Patient #2 presented a buccal gingival recession at tooth UL3. In both cases, the sulcular gingival margin was gently disephitelized with a diamond bur leaving the soft tissue healing by itself. After 4 weeks, the procedure was reperformed. After 6 months, the gingival margins appeared thicker and a creeping attachment was achieved in both cases, obtaining gingival symmetry, related to the adjacent or contralateral teeth, and root coverage. Gingival asymmetry, gingival recessions, and gingival thickness may be improved by means of a guided gentle nonsurgical stimulation, providing creeping attachment in the natural and also restored teeth, with a healthy and stable tissue after 24 months of follow\u2010up.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/5828423","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]],"date-time":"2019-01-29T18:52:39Z","timestamp":1548787959000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["The Creeping Attachment Induced Technique (CAIT) in Natural and Restored Teeth: Case Reports with 24 Months of Follow\u2010Up"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2019","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8197-3546","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michele","family":"Perelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Abundo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Corrente","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8798-7834","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paolo Giacomo","family":"Arduino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jcpe.12275"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11607\/prd.2239"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0757.1996.tb00178.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/ijdr.IJDR_207_17"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2003.74.5.709"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2003.74.10.1520"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-051X.1996.tb00608.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-051X.2008.01346.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","first-page":"10","article-title":"Biologically oriented preparation technique (BOPT): a new approach for prosthetic restoration of periodontically healthy teeth","volume":"8","author":"Loi I.","year":"2013","journal-title":"The European Journal of Esthetic Dentistry"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jcpe.12221"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","first-page":"121","article-title":"Creeping attachment after 10 years of treatment of a gingival recession with acellular dermal matrix: a case report","volume":"42","author":"Santos A.","year":"2011","journal-title":"Quintessence International"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-051X.1982.tb01226.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","first-page":"216","article-title":"Thick gingival autograft for the coverage of gingival recession: A clinical evaluation","volume":"10","author":"Borghetti A.","year":"1990","journal-title":"The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.1978.49.10.513"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11607\/prd.3013"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-0757.2001.027001072.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","first-page":"432","article-title":"Unique creeping attachment after autogenous gingival grafting: case report","volume":"69","author":"Otero-Cagide F.
