Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1)Vertical Recession Depth (VRD): Distance between the Cementoenamel Junction (CEJ) and the gingival margin in milli-meter (mm). 2)Mean root coverage (MRC): Mean obtained in both the groups. Expressed in percentage. 3)Keratinized Tissue Width (KTW): Distance between the gingival margin and the mucogingival junction in mm. 4)Keratinized Tissue Thickness (KTT): By probe transparency method in mm Timepoint: Baseline (T0) 1 week (T1) 1 month (T2) 3 months (T3) 6 months (T4) post-surgery

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) Probing Depth (PD): Distance between the most apical part of the gingival margin and the bottom of the pocket in mm. 2) Clinical Attachment Loss (CAL): Distance between the CEJ and the bottom of the pocket in mm. 3) Recession Width (RW): Width of exposed root surface 1mm apical to the CEJ in mm. 4) Complete Root Coverage (CRC): Recorded when the post-operative gingival margin completely covers the CEJ. Timepoint: Baseline (T0) 1 week (T1) 1 month (T2) 3 months (T3) 6 months (T4) post-surgery
