Overview

Brief Summary

Microsurgical tunneling flap procedures using connective tissue grafts (CTG) are predictable for treating teeth with gingival recessions. Enamel matrix derivatives (EMD) can be used as an alternative to the aforementioned gold standard. The aim of this study is to evaluate clinically the use of tunnel technique with EMD applied group in addition to CTG and the same technique with CTG group for the treatment of multiple gingival recessions.
