Injectable platelet-rich fibrin to close gum recession
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether an injectable healing material called platelet-rich fibrin can help cover exposed tooth root in front teeth with gum recession. If it works, it may reduce tooth sensitivity and improve appearance for people with suitable, healthy teeth and gums.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You do not have any whole-body (systemic) disease
- You have at least one exposed gum recession area on the front teeth (lower or upper)
- That recession matches a certain measured depth and the tooth has the right anatomy (enamel-cementum junction is visible)
- The tooth to be treated is alive (not a dead root) and the treatment area has no cavities, no fillings, and no unusual grooves
- You have not had gum (periodontal) surgery in that area within the last 24 months

This study compares two gum surgery techniques that use a special blood concentrate (called platelet-rich fibrin) to help cover receding gums. The goal is to see which method works better for hiding exposed roots and improving gum health.
This trial is testing two methods for fixing receding gums: using a small piece of tissue from the roof of your mouth (connective tissue graft) versus using a special concentrate of your own blood (injectable platelet-rich fibrin). Both are done through a tiny tunnel under the gum, and the goal is to cover the exposed root and make your gums look and feel healthier.
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich fibrin (a substance made from your blood that aids healing) or hyaluronic acid (a natural gel-like compound) to a standard gum graft improves healing. It is for people with gum recession or thin gums who need this type of surgery.
This study tests a gum surgery technique that covers exposed tooth roots using a special gum graft (from a donor) and a blood concentrate to help healing. It aims to reduce pain and root sensitivity and improve the look of your gums.
This trial tests a treatment for deep gum disease pockets using a combination of your own blood components (injectable platelet-rich fibrin) and a bone graft material. It aims to help regenerate bone lost to periodontitis.
This trial tests whether a treatment made from your own blood (injectable platelet-rich fibrin) can help improve thin or narrow gum tissue around dental implants. It may be an option if you have less than 2 mm of gum width or thickness around your implant.
