Background: Newer generation platelet concentrates, such as advanced platelet-rich fibrin plus (A-PRF+) obtained following low-speed centrifugation concept and horizontal platelet-rich fibrin (H-PRF) obtained from swing out and bucket system, showed increased platelet entrapment and growth factor release in the in-vitro studies. This prospective study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of A-PRF+ and H-PRF membranes in the treatment of gingival recession defects. The objectives of this study were to compare the changes in the recession height (RH) and the mean root coverage percentage (MRC%) between and within the research groups.
