Brief summary

patients with Miller class I , II gingival recession will be divided into 2 groups (control, intervention).the control one will receive coronally advanced flap with subepithililal connective tissue graft harvested from the palate while the intervention one will have coronally advanced flap with advanced platelet rich fibrin(A-PRF).as it represent a new generation of platelet concentrate allow for better healing and root coverage results. Null hypothesis: In patients with Miller class I and II gingival recession, there is no difference in amount of root coverage (mm) following the application of SCTG+A-PRF compared to CAF+SCTG.

Detailed description

* Population (P): Patients with single Miller class I, II gingival recessions. * Intervention (I): Coronally advanced flap (CAF) plus platelet rich fibrin (A-PRF). * Comparator (C): Coronally advanced flap (CAF) plus subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). * Primary Outcome (O): Root coverage (mm). * Time frame: 9 months. * Study design: Randomized controlled clinical trial. * Patients are to be selected from the outpatient clinic of the department of Oral Medicine and Periodontology-Cairo University

Interventions

PROCEDURECAF + (A-PRF)

advanced platelet rich fibrin prepared by low speed centrfugation concept(LSCC) together with coronally advanced flap .

PROCEDURECAF+SCTG
