Summary

This study tested a new surgical technique called the NORD flap for treating receding gums, comparing it to the standard method that uses a tissue graft from the roof of the mouth. The goal was to see if the new technique could cover exposed tooth roots just as well, with less pain and fewer side effects. Fifty-five adults with mild gum recession took part, and researchers measured gum coverage and patient comfort over 15 months.
