Résumé
The purpose of the present study was to prospectively evaluate the 3-year changes in the gingival dimensions following multiple coronally advanced flap (MCAF) with selective use of connective tissue graft (CTG). In addition, the secondary aim was to histologically identify the factors related to phenotype changes. Twenty patients treated with MCAF and site-specific application of a CTG were available for the 3-year follow-up. Outcome measures included complete root coverage (CRC), recession reduction, keratinized tissue width (KTW), marginal tissue thickness changes, and primary flap position. Biopsies were harvested at one of the sites treated with the adjunct of CTG. All sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, Masson trichrome, Verhoeff-van Gieson, tenascin, and alcian blue stain for semiquantitative evaluation. At 3 years, CRC was detected in 86% of sites treated with MCAF alone and 81% of sites treated with MCAF + CTG. The 47% of sites treated with MCAF + CTG presented an apical shift of primary flap from its original position. Linear regression showed a significant association between KTW change and the initial KTW in MCAF-treated sites, while both initial KTW and position of primary flap were statistically significantly associated factors with KTW changes in the MCAF + CTG group. In all the biopsies examined, there is always a marked and clear separation between the connective tissue of the gingival flap and the palatal connective tissue of the graft. The selective use of CTG is an effective treatment for multiple gingival recessions. Only a limited increase in KTW can be expected in a bilaminar technique if, during the healing phases, the connective tissue is maintained completely covered.

BACKGROUND
The purpose of the present study was to prospectively evaluate the 3-year changes in the gingival dimensions following multiple coronally advanced flap (MCAF) with selective use of connective tissue graft (CTG). In addition, the secondary aim was to histologically identify the factors related to phenotype changes.
METHODS
Twenty patients treated with MCAF and site-specific application of a CTG were available for the 3-year follow-up. Outcome measures included complete root coverage (CRC), recession reduction, keratinized tissue width (KTW), marginal tissue thickness changes, and primary flap position. Biopsies were harvested at one of the sites treated with the adjunct of CTG. All sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, Masson trichrome, Verhoeff-van Gieson, tenascin, and alcian blue stain for semiquantitative evaluation.
RESULTS
At 3 years, CRC was detected in 86% of sites treated with MCAF alone and 81% of sites treated with MCAF + CTG. The 47% of sites treated with MCAF + CTG presented an apical shift of primary flap from its original position. Linear regression showed a significant association between KTW change and the initial KTW in MCAF-treated sites, while both initial KTW and position of primary flap were statistically significantly associated factors with KTW changes in the MCAF + CTG group. In all the biopsies examined, there is always a marked and clear separation between the connective tissue of the gingival flap and the palatal connective tissue of the graft.
CONCLUSIONS
The selective use of CTG is an effective treatment for multiple gingival recessions. Only a limited increase in KTW can be expected in a bilaminar technique if, during the healing phases, the connective tissue is maintained completely covered.
