Abstract

Objective: To compare root coverage surgery results using subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCGT) and de-epithelialized gingival graft (DGG) in Miller Class I and II gingival recessions. 

Material and Methods: A review of the literature published in the last 5 years, with articles selected from PubMed and Google Scholar databases, using the search key " de epithelialized gingival graft AND subepithelial connective tissue graft.” 

Results: A total of 250 articles were obtained. 245 publications were excluded through a manual filter because they were duplicated or did not meet the established criteria, obtaining 5 articles included in this review.  

Conclusion: Both harvesting techniques offer satisfactory results of coverage of root recessions. However, there is not enough evidence to state that one technique is superior to the other.
