Mucosal fenestration is a clinical finding in which a portion of the tooth root is denuded of the overlying alveolar bone and gingiva or oral mucosa, thus exposing the root to the oral cavity. If left untreated, they may be a source of infection by giving entry to oral pathogen, leading to further progression of periodontal disease. Depending on their site of presence, they may also be a reason of esthetic concern to some patients. This paper reports one such infrequent case of mucosal fenestration of lower incisor region that was well treated by an interdisciplinary approach and regenerative therapy.
黏膜开窗是一种临床发现，即牙根的一部分上方的牙槽骨、牙龈或口腔黏膜缺失，从而使牙根暴露于口腔。如果不进行治疗，它们可能会因口腔病原体侵入而成为感染源，导致牙周疾病进一步发展。根据其存在部位，它们也可能是一些患者美观方面担忧的原因。本文报告了一例下切牙区黏膜开窗的罕见病例，该病例通过多学科方法和再生治疗得到了良好治疗。
