Subepithelial connective tissue graft used with platelet-rich plasma in treatment of gingival recession.

UNLABELLED: This paper describes the use of subepithelial connective tissue graft with platelet rich plasma in the treatment of gingival recession. There was complete root coverage in both the cases and the coverage is still maintained after 4 years.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Subepithelial connective tissue grafting with platelet-rich plasma may be an effective way to treat gingival recessions. Use of platelet-rich plasma provides the clinician with an autologous source of growth factors to accelerate healing.
