NCT01793389

Brief Summary

The present study deals with treatment of localized gingival recessions. The hypothesis of this study is that platelet rich fibrin can be used an alternative to subepithelial connective tissue graft in the coverage of denuded roots. If the platelet rich fibrin will prove to be similarly effective as subepithelial connective tissue graft, it will be possible to avoid a donor site and to decrease patient discomfort after operation.

    Change from baseline in percentage of complete root coverage at 1, 3 and 6 months.

    1, 3 and 6 months

  • Gingival recession depth

    Change from baseline in gingival recession will be assessed at 1, 3 and 6 months.

    1, 3 and 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)
