Overview
Brief Summary
Gingival recession is defined as the apical shift of the marginal gingiva from its normal position on the crown of the tooth to levels on the root surface beyond the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ).Various surgical procedures including repositioned flaps as well as autogenous and other type grafts have been used in the treatment of gingival recession.The present gold standard technique is the bilaminar technique using the subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) which provides for long-term stability but also increases tissue morbidity.Hence, a suitable alternative technique - the periosteal pedicle flap (PPF) - has been practiced, which is less invasive, does not require a second surgical site, and provides a graft of adequate dimensions.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
the percentage of root coverage (%RC)
Time Frame: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment
to measure the coverage percentage of root recession by UNC periodontal probe Preoperative recession depth - Postoperative recession depth /Preoperative recession depth x 100
Secondary Outcomes
- recession depth(at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment)
- keratinized tissue gain(at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment)
- clinical attachment gain(at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment)
- recession width(at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment)
