Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Connective tissue graft	Connective tissue graft	The recession will be treated with the pouch technique using a connective tissue graft.
Free gingival graft	Free gingival graft	Free gingival graft will be conducted.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Digital mean root coverage	Baseline, 3 months, 6 months and up to 10 years after surgery	Defined as the percentage of root coverage in the mid-buccal aspect, taking baseline as a reference. Measured by dividing the mean surface (in mm²) of the root covered by the procedure by the mean surface (in mm²) of root exposed at baseline.
