Summary

Gingival Recession (GR) is a common finding among adults, regardless of the oral hygiene levels. When it is associated with esthetic impairment, dentin hypersensitivity, root caries, surgical treatment is indicated. Mid-buccal Gingival Recessions are an extremely prevalent condition and have root coverage potential through periodontal plastic surgery procedures.

A flap thickness of \> 0.8 mm results in 100% root coverage, whereas a flap thickness of \< 0.8 mm results in partial root coverage in Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF)procedure.

The present study aims to increase the gingival thickness by microneedling procedures to enhance root coverage by CAF procedures in thin gingival phenotype.
