Objectives: The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to compare and evaluate the clinical effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF) and advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) applied together with coronally advanced flap (CAF) technique using a microsurgical approach in the treatment of type I multiple gingival recessions (GR).
Materials And Methods: Sixteen patients with multiple recession defects (Cairo type I) were included in this randomized and controlled study. Forty-five gingival recession defects were randomly equally divided into three groups (n = 15): CAF + CGF (test site); CAF + A-PRF (test site), and CAF alone (control site).
Objective: Arthrocentesis and prolotherapy are nonsurgical treatments for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the treatment of hypermobility, pain, and displacement of the TMJ by consecutively performing arthrocentesis and prolotherapy in the same session.
Materials And Methods: In this study, 10 adults with disc displacement and painful, hypermobile TMJ were selected.
