Additionally, to evaluate the level of keratinized tissue tissue thickness and width using PRF (+) AFG with a CAF or PRF only with a CAF compared to CTG with CAF for Class 1 and 2 gingival recession defects.\n\nMethod: 48 patients with recession defects will be randomly divided into three different treatment groups. Treatment Group A (n=16) will consist of patients treated with PRF (+) AFG with a CAF, Group B (n=16) will consist of patients treated with PRF only with a CAF and Group C (n=16) will consits of patients treated with CTG with CAF as a control. Clinical measurements will be assessed at baseline and at 1 month and 6 months after the surgery. The clinical measurements that will be recorded, include probing depth, clinical attachment level, and gingval recession parameters. The gingival recession parameters include recession width, depth and thickness.', 'detailedDescription': "Specific aim 1: Evaluate the level of root coverage using Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) plus Autologous Fibrin Glue (AFG) with a coronally advanced flap (CAF) or PRF only with a CAF compared to subepithelial connective tissue graft (CTG) with a CAF for Class 1 and 2 gingival recession defects.\n\nSpecific aim 2: Evaluate the level of keratinized tissue thickness and width using PRF plus AFG with a CAF, PRF only with a CAF or a SCTG with CAF for Class 1 and 2 gingival recession defects.\n\nResearch design and methods:\n\nSubjects and treating clinician will not be aware of the treatment arm until immediately before the surgery. Each treatment arm will use the same surgical protocol for treating gingival recession and will differ by the material used to cover the tooth root. Intervention A will use PRF with the addition of AFG. Intervention B will use PRF. The control arm will use CTG.\n\nMethods: A total of 48 patients with recession defects will be randomly assigned to three different treatment groups. Treatment group A (n=16) will consist of patients treated with PRF plus AFG with a CAF, Group B (n=16) will consist of patients treated with PRF with a CAF and Group C (n=16) will consist of patients treated with CTG with a CAF. Group C will be the control group. Clinical measurements, including recession defect length and gingival width and thickness, will be evaluated at baseline, one month and six months after treatment. For standardization, measurements will be taken using pre- fabricated stents with an endo file stopper. A visual analogue scale will be used to compare post-operative pain between the two procedures.\n\nStudy Subjects Overview: This study will use the patient pool of the periodontal clinic at the UCSF Dental Center to identify potentially eligible patients. The periodontal clinic regularly receives a high volume of referred patients for treatment of gingival recession.\n\nInclusion Criteria:\n\n1\\. Men and women aged 18 years or over 2. Miller's Class 1 and Class 2 recession Miller's Class 1 - Marginal tissue recession which does not extend to the mucogingival junction. There is no periodontal loss (bone or softi tssue ) in the interdental area, and 100% root coverage can be anticipated.\n\nMiller's Class 2 - Marginal tissue recession which extends beyond the mucogingival junction.There is no periodontal loss (bone or softi tssue ) in the interdental area, and 100% root coverage can be anticipated.\n\n5 Localized gingival recession of 1-6mm present on 1 or 2 continuous single rooted teeth. Gingival recession is measured from the cemental-enamel junction (CEJ; a stable anatomical landmark on every tooth) to the gingival margin.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n1. Current tobacco use (greater than 1 cigarette/week) or history of quitting \\< 5 years previously (self reported)\n2. Poor oral hygiene (plaque index of 2 or greater) or active periodontal disease (diagnosis of moderate chronic periodontal disease or greater)\n3. Currently taking aspirin, prescription blood thinners, or present with any coagulopathies 4. Type II diabetes with HbA1c greater than 7\n\n5\\. Immunosuppressed or any other systemic condition that would disqualify subject as an acceptable surgical candidate Retention strategy: In the course of review if funding becomes available modest financial incentives will be made to patients returning for the 1 month and 6 month recall appointments. Otherwise, telephone and email reminders will be made by study staff for recall appointments.\n\nPRF Preparation The PRF will be prepared according to the protocol outlined by Choukroun 1. Prior to the surgical procedure, venous blood will be collected via venipuncture from the antecubital vein using two 10 ml sterile glass tube and one 10ml sterile plastic tube. The tubes will be immediately centrifuged at 1300 rpm for 8 minutes to obtain PRF. The fibrin clot formed in the middle part of the tube will be collected. The clot will be transferred to the PRF box and compressed to form a membrane. For the AFG, the liquid will be separated from the red blood cells from the plastic tube using a sterile syringe.\n\nSup-epithelial connective tissue harvest:\n\nThe palatal donor site should be at least 3mm in thickness. A horizontal incision will be made on the palate 3mm from the maxillary canine to the first molar using a 15 blade. A sub-epithelial connective tissue graft will be harvested with adequate dimensions based on the recipient site. The graft will be sutured over the recipient site with 5-0 chromic gut sutures using a continuous mattress suturing technique.\n\nSurgical procedure:\n\nAn acrylic stent will be made using patient's models/dental cast. On the day of the procedure, the recession defect length and width will be measured using the pre-fabricated stent and periodontal probe. The gingival thickness will be evaluated using an endo reamer and stopper. For all groups, the recipient bed will be prepared using a horizontal sulcular incision. A split thickness flap will be reflected to expose the periosteum. The flap will be extended mesio-distally from the recession defect for adequate blood supply and for passive primary closure. For Group C - CTG w/ CAF, the CTG harvested from the palate will be placed over the recession defect. For Group B PRF w/CAF, the PRF membrane will be placed on the recession defect. For Group A -PRF plus AFG w/ CAF, the AFG liquid will be applied over the exposed roots of the recession defect and the PRF membrane will be placed on the recession defect. For all groups, the recipient flap will cover the graft and be coronally positioned over the cemento-enamel junction. The recipient site will be sutured using a sling suturing technique with 5-0 vicryl sutures. Care will be taken to achieve tension free primary closure for all the groups. Hemostasis will be achieved by applying gentle finger pressure for up to 5 minutes.\n\nData collection and Analysis:\n\nClinical measurements will be assessed at baseline and at 1 month and 6 months after surgery. The clinical measurements will be recorded using a pre- fabricated stent and periodontal probe. The clinical measurements that will be recorded, include probing depth, clinical attachment level, and gingival recession parameters. The gingival recession parameters include recession width, depth and thickness. Presence of plaque and gingival inflammation will also be recorded using Loe \\& Silness Plaque and Gingival Index.\n\nStandard clinical care:\n\n\\- Each subject receives regular care for the root coverage procedure.\n\nIn brief, the regular care involves the following:\n\n\\- Root coverage procedure involves coverage of the exposed root to improve esthetics, decrease caries risk and increase keratinized tissue. There are several techniques supported in the literature including the techniques used for treatment arm (Group B and Group C) of the study described below.\n\nStudy Procedures - After successful enrollment and randomization into a given treatment arm, subject are treated according to normal clinical care for the treating the soft tissue recession. Particpant's study models are taken and stent is created using the model.\n\nThe following study interventions are performed during the regular care phase:\n\nBaseline measurement- The clinical measurements will be taken non-invasively using a pre- fabricated stent, periodontal probe and endo reamer with stopper before the surgery (baseline) and at 1 month, 6 months post surgery.\n\n\\- Measurements will be recorded by the study coordinator on a coded data collection sheet.
