Summary

Pinhole surgical technique is a novel minimally invasive, predictable, efficient, time and cost-effective technique for treatment of multiple gingival recession. This procedure involves no releasing incision, suturing or sharp dissections. It has been shown that the greater post-operative displacement of gingival margin may cause greater root coverage. Based on this hypothesis, a split mouth randomized controlled clinical trial was planned to compare the clinical outcome of pinhole surgical technique with and without the use of orthodontic buttons and sutures in the treatment of multiple gingival recessions.
