Abstract

Aim: This case report aims to analyze the treatment outcome of receding gums with coronally advanced flap (CAF) with/without an autologous platelet rich fibrin (PRF).
Materials and Methods: Two patients with localized Miller’s class I gingival recession reported to the department of Periodontology, Seema Dental College and Hospital, Rishikesh, were selected for coronally advanced flap with/without autologous platelet rich fibrin for aesthetic purpose. At baseline, 1 and 3-month treatment outcome was assessed by following clinical parameters such as recession depth (RD), recession width (RW), clinical attachment level (CAL), keratinized tissue width (WKT).
Results: Recession depth (RD), Recession width (RW), Clinical attachment level (CAL), Width of keratinized tissue (WKT) shows significant improvement in patient with platelet rich fibrin at 1 month & 3 months.
Conclusion: Coronally advanced flap along with PRF shows that it is a predictable treatment modality for localized Miller's class I recession defects.

Keywords: Gingival recession, Coronally, Platelet rich fibrin.
