Gingival fenestration is a rare pathological entity, scarcely described in the literature. The present paper has reported a case of a 22-year-old male patient with a "Gingival fenestration" in the lower left central incisor. The lesion was successfully treated using a coronally positioned partial thickness graft under 4 X magnification, with excellent aesthetic results.
