Conditions
Summary
The objective of this project is to evaluate 1-year outcomes of treatment of MAGRD using a modified coronally advanced tunnel technique (MCAT) with either conventional CTG (control group) or micro-CTG (test group).
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria5
- age ≥18 years,
- systemically healthy,
- presenting with a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 6 adjacent RT1/RT2 recessions, located in the maxilla or mandible with an apico-coronal extension (i.e. recession depth) of ≥2 mm,
- Full-Mouth Plaque Score (FMPS) \<20%,
- Full-Mouth Bleeding Score (FMBS) \<20%.
Exclusion Criteria9
- pregnancy or lactation,
- tobacco smoking,
- uncontrolled medical condition,
- medication that can affect gingival conditions.
- thick phenotype,
- severe tooth malpositioning,
- uncorrected trauma from toothbrushing,
- a previous history of root coverage procedures
- the presence of furcation defects.

Interventions
Multiple adjacent gingival recession defects will be covered by coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft harvested from the palate.
Multiple adjacent gingival recession defects will be covered by coronally advanced flap combined with multiple micro connective tissue graft harvested from the palate.
The harvested connective tissue graft is divided in multiple micro connective tissue grafts with a scalpel blade before being placed on the recipient site.
