    Erupción pasiva alterada: reporte de caso
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2025-09-19) Romero Paguay, Ana Paula; Pinos Ochoa, Xavier Andrés
    Altered passive eruption (APE) is a morphological anomaly that occurs during tooth eruption. This excess gingiva around the teeth causes aesthetic problems such as short clinical crowns. These aesthetic deficiencies can lead patients to seek treatment to address them. The management of APE is dictated by its classification, which is obtained based on clinical and radiographic studies. The aim of this article is to present a clinical case with the correct management of altered passive eruption, performing a diagnosis and treatment plan adapted to the patient's needs.
