5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Gingival recession (GR) is frequently associated with deterioration in dental esthetics and dental hypersensitivity. Outcomes from recent systematic reviews have demonstrated that when the root is covered and the gain in the width of keratinized tissue (KT) is expected, the use of subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTGs) associated with coronally advanced flaps (CAF) appears to be more predictable, and may be considered the gold standard procedure. However, the SCTGs may increase patients' morbidity (e.g., pain). This occurs because of the need for a donor surgical area, which may increase the risk of surgical complications like bleeding, as well as increases post-operative discomfort and the period of the surgical procedure. Another biomaterial, a new collagen matrix (CM) has been used as a substitute for the SCTG. The use of CM was associated with a significant reduction in post-operative morbidity, less post-operative pain and discomfort in the patient, and more esthetic satisfaction.

Intervention Description
The test group will be treated by means of the association of Collagen Matrix + Coronally Advanced Flap. As treatment, the control group will receive the association of a subepithelial Conjunctive Tissue Graft + Coronally Advanced Flap. The aim of both procedures will be to obtain root coverage. All these procedures will be performed in a standardized manner.
