Summary

This small pilot study tests two different stitching techniques during gum surgery to cover exposed tooth roots caused by gum recession. Seven healthy adults with multiple areas of gum recession will receive both techniques in different parts of their mouth. The goal is to see which method leads to better root coverage and a more natural-looking gum appearance after three months.
