Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate gingival recession depth reduction using tunneled coronally advanced flap compared to coronally advanced flap both combined with connective tissue graft in patients with isolated RT2 gingival recession sites
Detailed Description: Gingival recession can cause clinical conditions that could be of main concern for patients Techniques aiming for coverage of the gingival recession aim to address dentin hypersensitivity non-carious cervical lesions NCCLs and enhance patients esthetics Cortellini Bissada 2018 Mid-buccal gingival recessions have been associated with patients esthetic discomfort Zucchelli Mounssif 2015 Most of the studies in the literature focus on the treatment of RT1 recession as they have the most favorable prognosis of full root coverage Barootchi et al 2020 Despite most studies focusing their attention on RT1 cases RT2 defects are found to be the most prevalent type with 888 among patients according to Romandini et al 2020

The coronally advanced flap and the tunneling technique are the most commonly performed surgical approaches for treating gingival recessions However these two approaches have commonly been regarded as alternatives to each other with clinicians choosing to perform only one of them during root coverage procedures

Barootchi Tavelli 2022 aimed in his conducted case series to designate a surgical technique to treat isolated RT2 gingival recession defects in which he was trying to achieve and combine the advantage of both better access and graft stabilization in CAF and the preservation of the integrity of the papilla and better blood supply to the graft present in tunneling technique The study concluded that the combination of both techniques in the same surgical design can have the potential to enhance flap and graft vascularization and improve clinical esthetic and patient-reported outcomes To our knowledge there is no conducted randomized clinical trials comparing the tunneled coronally advanced flap technique to the coronally advanced flap for gingival depth reduction

So this clinical trial aims to address this gap of the literature
