The treatment was performed with the bilaminar technique [coronally advanced flap (CAF)+de-epithelialized free gingival graft]. De-epithelialization procedure was done with scalpel (control site) or Er:YAG laser (Versawave, Hoya ConBio, San Francisco, CA; 40 hz, 50\u2009mJ\/pulse), under water irrigation, noncontact mode (\u223c1\u2009mm away from the target tissue) in sweeping motion with chisel-type laser (test site).
