Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
All examinations will be repeated by the same trained examiner who is blinded to the type of treatment applied after 10 days, 1, 3 and 6 months. The primary outcome will be the percentage of complete root coverage.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
All examinations will be repeated by the same trained examiner who is blinded to the type of treatment applied after 10 days, 1, 3 and 6 months. The secundary outcomes will be the percentage of root coverage, clinical attachment level gain, probing depth and keratinized tissue gain in the region and oral health-related quality of life (QVRSB). In addition, 3, 7 and 10 days after the procedures are carried out, the patients' postoperative pain will be measured.
