Gum recession treatment with blood-derived membranes
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a surgical procedure to cover exposed tooth roots caused by receding gums. It compares using thinner versus thicker membranes made from your own blood to help the gums heal and attach better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be in good general health with no uncontrolled medical conditions.
- You must not have taken medications affecting your gums or bleeding in the last 6 months.
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You must be a non-smoker or have quit smoking 10 or more years ago.
- You need at least 20 natural teeth with no looseness.
- You must have at least one gum recession on the cheek side of a tooth, with no cavities or infections at that site.

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 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 compares two ways to fix receding gums (a condition where your gums pull away from your teeth). It tests a newer technique using your own blood products versus a traditional graft to see which works better for moderate gum recession.
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 trial tests a new material to treat gum recession—tiny particles mixed with your own blood components (platelet-rich fibrin) placed as a membrane. The goal is to see if it helps cover exposed roots and improve gum health.
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.
