About this trial
This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the influence of different restorative materials placed in Class V cervical lesions on the clinical outcomes of root coverage surgery using a subepithelial connective tissue graft. Patients with Cairo RT1 (Miller Class I-II equivalent) gingival recession associated with non-carious cervical lesions or existing cervical restorations will receive one of the restorative approaches according to the study protocol. Clinical parameters, including the percentage of root coverage and soft tissue stability, will be evaluated during follow-up to determine which restorative approach provides the most favorable clinical outcome.

Treatments tested in this trial
No Restoration Control Group
Procedure/SurgeryNo restorative material will be placed in the Class V cervical lesion before root coverage surgery. Participants will undergo root coverage surgery using a coronally advanced flap with a subepithelial connective tissue graft according to the study protocol.
Glass Ionomer Cement Group
DeviceA conventional glass ionomer cement was used to restore the Class V cervical lesion before root coverage surgery with a subepithelial connective tissue graft.
Resin Composite Group
DeviceA resin composite material was used to restore the Class V cervical lesion before root coverage surgery with a subepithelial connective tissue graft.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Percentage of Root Coverage
The percentage of root coverage will be evaluated after root coverage surgery in Class V cervical lesions treated with different restorative approaches, including glass ionomer, resin composite, flowable composite, or no restoration. The outcome will assess which material or approach provides greater soft tissue coverage over the cervical/root surface.
