Comparison of Coronally Advanced Flap and Semilunar Incision Vestibular Technique for Multiple Gingival Recessions in Maxillary Teeth - A Randomized Controlled Trial

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Comparison of Coronally advanced flap with semilunar vestibular incision technique for root coverage in patients with multiple gingival recession in maxillary teeth.

Detailed Description
-----------------
the subjects attending the OPD department of periodontology, IGIDS and patients will be selected based on inclusion criteria, informed consent to be obtained from the patients, Randomization process: Patient to be selected for one of the two procedures by simple random sampling (Lottery method) Baseline value will be recorded by a calibrated examiner other than the operator The procedure is performed by the operator ( primary investigator) Post op values to be recorded by the calibrated examiner. Patient to be reviewed at 3 and 6 months Results will be dicussed
