3. Patients with multiple recessions (=2 teeth) type III with shallow vestibule depth and keratinized gingiva that do not include molars, and may be in the upper and lower jaw.
4. Patients who, in the three-dimensional x-ray, present a vestibular cortex less than 1mm thick
5. Healthy or periodontally treated patients
6. Systemically healthy or with completely controlled or stabilized diseases. A medical report will be requested that confirms the stabilization of the specific disease.
7. General plaque control (FMPS) = 25% (O'Leary et al 1972)

Exclusion Criteria

1. Pregnant or breastfeeding patients
2. Uncontrolled medical conditions
3. Uncontrolled periodontal disease
4. Patients treated with any medication that affects gingival conditions such as causing hyperplasia
5. Alcohol and/or drug abuse
6. Do not sign informed consent
7. Despite having root recessions, it presents a cortex greater than 1mm in the 3D CBCT and therefore another type of technique is considered necessary.
