Brief Summary: The objective of this project is to compare post-operative pain associated with palatal and tuberosity donor sites for micro-CTG and to evaluate the outcomes in both the donor and recipient sites
Detailed Description: A variety of surgical methods have been reported to reestablish root coverage including tunneling techniques and coronally and laterally advanced flaps As thin gingival tissue is one of the predisposing factors for GRD the adjuvant use of subepithelial connective tissue grafts CTGs is often considered CTGs are thought to contribute to phenotype modification and stability of treatment outcomes and studies have indicated favorable esthetic results and high degrees of root coverage CTGs are preferably harvested either from the lateral superficial part of the palate or from the tuberosity due to the high amount of lamina propria and minimal submucosal tissue adipose and glandular tissue

When multiple adjacent teeth exhibit GRDs the preferred surgical approach should offer the greatest possible root coverage while limiting drawbacks ie patient morbidity esthetic problems Thus one of the challenges related to coverage of multiple GRDs is the scarcity of donor tissue Modification of the harvested CTG into multiple micro-CTG has been proposed for the treatment of multiple adjacent GRDs MAGRD in order to reduce the amount of CTG to be harvested Soft-tissue grafts from the tuberosity are increasingly gaining popularity not only because they are easier to harvest are denser in connective tissue fibers but also because harvesting from the tuberosity presents minimal risk of intra- or post-operative complications resulting in reduced patient morbidity However CTG from maxillary tuberosity have been reported to induce a hyperplastic response in some patients

The objective of this study will be to compare palatal versus tuberosity micro-CTG on postoperative pain oral health-related quality of life OHRQoL degree of root coverage and esthetic outcomes

The investigators hypothesise that no statistically significant differences will be observed in terms of root coverage and patient satisfaction at 12 months non-inferiority Subjects in the test group micro-CTG will report significantly lower morbidity at 1 and 2 weeks post-surgery when compared to controls superiority
