Esthetics associated with health of periodontium in fixed prosthodontics is necessary, especially when treating the maxillary anterior region. An unfavorable relationship between gingiva and fixed partial denture commonly compromises the final result. The establishment of periodontal health is therefore prerequisite for successful and aesthetic prosthodontic and restorative procedure. The cases discussed here highlights a clinical situation where gingival recession is treated with mucogingival surgery and short crown height treated with crown lengthening followed by prosthesis to provide an optimum esthetics to the patient. After follow up there is no alteration in gingival margin present. Improvement of gingival condition and esthetic was achieved. Combine effort of surgical periodontal procedure and prosthetic approach give satisfactory treatment outcome for long period. [Paletkar T Natl J Integr Res Med, 2019; 10(2):75-80]
