Extended Platelet- Rich Fibrin Membrane Combined With Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access Technique to Treat Localized Gingival Recession

Egypt30 participantsStarted 2024-04-01

Plain-language summary

This study will be performed to clinically evaluate and compare the effectiveness of extended platelet-rich fibrin (e-PRF) membrane versus de-epithelized free gingival graft (DFGG) in combination with vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (VISTA) in the treatment of localized Cairo gingival recession type 1 (RT1) defects. The primary outcome of the present study will be the percentage of root coverage assessed after 6 months of surgical therapy whereas the secondary outcomes include the differences of gingival thickness, keratinized tissue width and dental hypersensitivity after 3 and 6 months.
