This study aimed to clinically evaluate the effectiveness and the predictability of root coverage at adjacent multiple gingival recessions using a modified coronally positioned flap associated with the subepithelial connective tissue graft.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> Ten non\u2010smoking, healthy subjects (five men and five women; mean age, 28.7 years) presenting 29 Class I or II adjacent multiple gingival recessions were enrolled. Each patient was treated using a modified coronally advanced flap associated with the subepithelial connective tissue graft. Probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), recession depth (RD), and width of keratinized tissue (KT) were measured at baseline and 6 months later. The Student <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic> test was used to compare treatment outcomes through time.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> The results revealed significant CAL gain (mean gain \u00b1 SD, 1.97 \u00b1 0.94 mm; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.0001), RD decrease (2.03 \u00b1 0.78 mm; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.0001), and KT increase (1.31 \u00b1 1.23 mm, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.0001). The average root coverage was 96.7%, and complete root coverage was found at 93.1% of the defects.
