To evaluate the association between the width of keratinized tissue and attached gingiva with root coverage outcomes in RT1 gingival recession defects of maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth treated with subepithelial connective tissue graft using a minimally invasive technique (VISTA + CTG).
OBJECTIVES
1. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
1. To analyze relation and association at 3 and 6 months outcomes in terms of CRC, mRC and gingival margin position with baseline parameters including width of keratinized tissue and width of attached gingiva, after providing mucogingival plastic surgery in the form of VISTA+CTG for the treatment of RT1recession defects. 2. To evaluate 3 and 6 months outcomes (percentage of root coverage, width of keratinized tissue and width of attached gingiva), after providing mucogingival plastic surgery in the form of VISTA+CTG for the treatment of RT1recession defects. 3. To access the long-term stability of gingival margin achieved from 3 months to 6 months. 2. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
1. To access recession depth (RD), recession width (RW), probing pocket depth (PPD), mid buccal clinical attachment loss (bCAL), change in gingival thickness (GT) at baseline, at 3 months and 6 months. 2. To access patient related outcomes measures (PROM) in pain and hypersensitivity in teeth with gingival recession undergoing recession coverage.

Recession depth ≥2mm
Systemically healthy individuals.
Age >18 years old.
Patients having systemic disease such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperthyroidism or on medication that influence the outcome of periodontal therapy.
Patient with active periodontal disease
Smokers and tobacco users
Mal-aligned anterior teeth.
