 The surgeries, as well as all postoperative follow-up, were performed at the dental clinic of ICT- UNESP. Two horizontal incisions were made at right angles to the adjacent interdental papillae, without interfering with the gingival margins of neighboring teeth. Two oblique vertical incisions were extended beyond the mucogingival junction, and a trapezoidal mucoperiosteal flap was raised up to the mucogingival junction. After this point, a split-thickness flap was extended apically, releasing the tension and favoring coronal positioning of the flap.The exposed root surface was gently scaled and planed until it became smooth in the CTG group. For those allocated to CTGRC group, a sterile rubber dam was placed to isolate the operative field and the non-carious cervical lesion restoration was performed with a nanocomposite resin Filtek Supreme - 3M ESPE - St. Paul, MN, USA, following the manufacturers instructions. Afterward, the both groups received a thin and small connective tissue graft that was sutured over the rootrestoration surface. Then, the flap was coronally positioned and sutured to completely cover the graft.
