The aim of this study is to estimate the effect of periodontal phenotype on the outcome of isolated gingival recession by laterally positioned flap.The primary objective of study is to assess the changes in gingival margin in the donor tooth after laterally positioned flap over a period of 6 months and to assess the influence of periodontal phenotype on the stability of results of root coverage achieved through laterally positioned flap. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate root coverage by laterally positioned flap in thick periodontal phenotype and to evaluate root coverage by laterally positioned flap in thin periodontal phenotype.
