Which may heal quicker with less post-op pain: a connective tissue graft for 1 upper tooth or 3-4 side-by-side lower teeth done with alloderm?

No way to know: There is no definitive answer to your question. Each surgical procedure may surprise us with more or less of an expected outcome. Your own dentist might be able to shed more light on the answer to your question.

Unknown: I don't think this is an answerable question. Post-treatment recovery depends on extent of the surgery, complexity of the procedure, location of the surgery, health of underlying tissues, presence or absence of inflammation, your overall health and oral health at the time of surgery, and many more factors. I would have the areas evaluated by a Periodontist to gain information specific to you.
