Introduction: Root coverage remains a major challenge in clinical practice. The success of mucogingival surgery depends on several factors, including the choice of root coverage material and suturing technique. Case Report: A 30-year-old male patient presented with multiple gingival recessions in the upper left quadrant. Following treatment root planing, the selected technique was a multiple coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft. During wound closure, a modification of the traditional sling and tag suturing technique was used to improve healing and clinical outcomes. Complete root coverage was achieved for all treated teeth. Conclusion: The modified sling and tag suturing technique may be considered a less invasive and effective alternative to the original technique.
