Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of two treatments for gingival recession. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Which treatment method, Coronally Positioned Flap with Connective Tissue Graft or Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel with connective tissue graft, is more effective in treating gum recession? How does the Anatomical Recession Rate, a new measurement technique, help in evaluating the success of these treatments?

The patients will be treated with coronally advanced flap or modified coronally advanced tunnel + connective tissue graft to see which method is more effective in reducing gum recession, as measured by using anatomical recession rate.

Conditions

  • Gingival Recession

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Coronally Positioned Flap with Connective Tissue Graft

his intervention involves surgically repositioning the gum tissue over the exposed tooth root and adding a connective tissue graft. The graft is obtained from the patient's palate and placed in the area of gingival recession to promote tissue regeneration and enhance root coverage. The procedure aims to reduce gingival recession and improve periodontal health.

PROCEDURE

Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel with Connective Tissue Graft

This intervention utilizes a minimally invasive technique to create a tunnel beneath the gum tissue, through which a connective tissue graft is placed. The graft, sourced from the patient's palate, is used to encourage the growth of new gum tissue over the exposed root. This method is designed to minimize trauma and promote faster recovery, aiming to improve root coverage and periodontal outcomes.
