About

evaluation of the use of L-PRF membrane with coronally repositioned flap in treatment of localized gingival recession (Class I & II) in comparison with the use of connective tissue graft

Full description

Twenty patients, who are candidates for gingival recession coverage, will participate in this prospective clinical trial.

Group 1(10 patients) :

Coronally repositioned flap will be done and L PRF membrane will be placed into the tissues

Group 2 (Control group)(10 patients) :

Coronally repositioned flap will be done with sub epithelial connective tissue Parameters

  • Clinical evaluation of percentage of root coverage and keratinized tissue width
  • Esthetic outcome evaluation Will be done using the root coverage esthetic score (Cairo et al. 2009) that include

Both evaluations will be done at 3, 6 and 9 months
