Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the amount of recession width following the use CAF and advanced platelet rich fibrin (A-PRF) compared to CAF with SCTG in the treatment of single gingival recession. Materials and Methods: Twenty gingival recession defects were randomly assigned to receive either CAF+SCTG (n=10) or CAF+A-PRF (n=10). Recession width in mm was assessed at 3, 6 and 9 months post-operatively. Results: Patients in test group (CAF+A-PRF) reported 2.13 ± 0.35 recession width at 3 months, 2.00 ± 0 after 6 months. While, finally decreased to 1.25±1.04 after 9 months. In the control group (CAF+SCTG), the amount of recession width recorded 1.00 ± 1.07 at 3 months, while, after 6 and 9 months decreased to 0.5 ± 0.93. Conclusion and recommendation: There was no statistically significant difference between the two studied groups after 9 months. While, A significant difference reported at 3 and 6 months. Further studies with larger sample size and longer follow-up is needed.
