NCT05319938

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to compare and evaluate the clinical effects of Concentrated Growth Factor (CGF) and Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) applied together with Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) technique using a microsurgical approach in the treatment of Type I multiple gingival recessions (GR).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Complete and mean root coverage

    Percentages of root coverage and complete root coverage were calculated according to the following standard formulae. Percentage of root coverage: \[(preop. vertical gingival recession (VGR)- postop.VGR)\\ preop. VGR\] x 100 Percentage of complete root coverage: \[(teeth with complete root coverage) \\ (all treated teeth)\] x 100.

    Change from baseline at 6 months of the percent of complete and mean root coverage

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Gingival thickness

    Change from baseline at 6 months of the gingival thickness

  • Keratinized gingiva width (WKG)

    Change from baseline at 6 months of keratinized gingiva width

  • Patient esthetic score (PES)

    Change from baseline at 6 months of the patient esthetic score

  • Patient comfort score (PCS)

    Change from baseline at 6 months of the patient comfort score

  • Hypersensitivity score (HS)

    Change from baseline at 6 months of the hypersensitivity score

Interventions

CAF onlyPROCEDURE

After local anesthesia, initially, sulcular incisions were made on the buccal aspect of the teeth and two vertical incisions were made. A trapezoidal flap was elevated with a split-full-split approach in the coronal-apical direction. The anatomic inter-dental papillae adjacent to the involved tooth were de-epithelialized. Plaque, calculus, and soft tooth structures on exposed root surfaces were removed with curettes. No further mechanical or chemical root conditioning materials were performed. The flap was coronally placed over the membranes to completely cover the CEJ and sutured with 6.0 propylene suture.

The flap was coronally placed over the membranes to completely cover the CEJ and sutured with 6.0 propylene suture. Blood samples were collected into 10 ml glass-coated plastic tubes without anticoagulant solutions. These tubes were placed into CGF centrifuge machine and centrifuged immediately . CGF membrane were placed over the defect. The flap was coronally placed over the membranes to completely cover the CEJ and sutured with 6.0 propylene suture.
