Background: The labial frenulum may be associated with traction on the marginal gingiva of the incisors with resulting gingival recession, a condition known as “pull syndrome”. In this case, performing a frenulectomy at least 6 months before root covering surgery is necessary. Recently, tissue adhesives have been studied as a good alternative to conventional sutures. Methods: A 34-year-old female affected by pull syndrome of the central lower incisors underwent frenulectomy, and an n-hexyl-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive was used to ensure wound closure. Results: The patient was instructed in hygiene maneuvers and rinsed with 0.12% chlorhexidine-based mouthwash for 15 days. The glue was partially removed at 7 days, and for the remaining, natural disposal time was expected. The wound healing process was complete after 15 days with minimal postoperative discomfort. Conclusion: This n-hexyl-cyanoacrylate surgical glue could be proposed as a viable alternative to conventional sutures during surgical procedures involving wide flaps with the impossibility of first-intention healing. Moreover, it could be indicated to reduce operative time and patients’ discomfort, even if these hypotheses should be confirmed by future clinical studies.
