NCT03340987

Brief Summary

Patients with multiple recession defects will be randomly oriented into to groups. The test group will recieve a relatively new technique, the VISTA technique, combined with connective tissue graft that will be harvested from the palate. The control group will recieve coronally advanced flap with connective tissue graft. subjects will be followed up for 6 months after the surgery. Any complications, that may occur, will be dealt with.

Study Arms (2)

Vista technique with SCTG

EXPERIMENTAL

vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access combined with subepithelial connective tissue graft

Procedure: vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access

coronally advanced flap with SCTG

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

coronally advanced flap combined with subepithelial connective tissue graft

Procedure: Coronally advanced flap

Interventions

vertical vestibular incision will be made down to the periosteum followed by creating a tunnel without reflecting the interdental papilla. Then a free gingival graft will be optained from the palate and de-epithelialized extraorally. The connective tissue graft will then be applied through the tunnel and the gingival margin will be sutured and the sutures will be fixed to the tooth surface by flowable composite. Then the vestibular incision will be sutured.

Also known as: Vista technique
Vista technique with SCTG

Two horizontal incisions will be made mesial and distal to the recession area followed by two oblique incisions extended to the alveolar mucosa and a full-split thickness flap will be elevated. De-epithelialization will be done to receive the connective tissue graft obtained from the palate by de-epithelializing a free gingival graft. Then the flap will be advanced coronally aand sutured without tension
