Non-randomizedParallel-groupSingle-blindTreatment

Summary

Free gingival grafts are important to increase zone of attached gingiva and root coverage. This case series reveals role of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) as adjunctive therapy in palatal wound healing. The superior healing observed at the PRF membrane sites supports its use in accelerating soft-tissue healing. PRF membrane as a palatal bandage is an efficacious approach to protect the raw wound area of a palatal donor site to reduce healing time and patient discomfort.
