1) Laterally positioned graft: This technique is used when there is a loss of
interdental papilla, which may occur due to periodontal disease or trauma.
2) Free gingival graft: This involves the transfer of a piece of tissue from the
palate to the affected area to cover the exposed root surface and increase the
zone of attached gingival tissue.
3) Coronally displaced graft: This technique involves moving the existing
gingival tissue coronally over the exposed root to cover it.
4) Maintenance and recall visits: After the resolution of inflammation through
scaling and root planing, if the recession is minimal and the tooth is not at
risk of further damage, regular maintenance and recall visits may be sufficient
to monitor the area.
Since the question mentions that the tooth is normally placed and the issue is
resolved after scaling and root planing, the correct answer is 4) Maintenance
and recall visits to ensure the area remains healthy and monitor for any
recurrence of recession.

General MicrobiologyBacillary dysentery, primarily caused by Shigella species, is known for producing stool that is typically bright red in color due to the presence of blood and inflammatory cells. The intense red color is a result of the invasive nature of the bacteria, which damage the intestinal lining leading to bloody diarrhea.

Treatment with a single 200-mg dose of doxycycline has been recommended As studies in volunteers demonstrated conclusively, the disease is an immunizing process. Patients who have recovered from cholera are solidly immune for at least 3 years

The prothrombin time (PT) test measures the integrity of the extrinsic and common coagulation pathways. In contrast, aPTT is used to assess the intrinsic and common pathways.

A discrepancy of 0.3 mm often indicates a minor interference on the internal occlusal surface of the crown. Reducing the internal pressure spot allows the crown to seat fully on the prepared tooth.

The ideal luting agent consistency is not explicitly mentioned in the text, but it should be able to flow into a film less than 25 µm thick without fragmentation.

General Microbiologythe first X-linked immunodeficiency disease to be recognized is X-linked agammaglobulinemia. It is a primary immunodeficiency disorder caused by a mutation in the X-chromosome-linked gene responsible for the production of antibodies (specifically, immunoglobulins), leading to a deficiency of B cells and impaired humoral immunity.
