Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding a natural healing material works better to treat receding gums in adults. Receding gums is a condition where the gum tissue pulls back and exposes the tooth root. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does the addition of this healing material help cover the exposed root better than the standard surgery?
* Does the material help the gum tissue heal faster and become thicker? Researchers will compare a standard gum surgery alone to the standard gum surgery combined with Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin (A-PRF). A-PRF is a healing material made directly from the participant's own blood during the surgery. This comparison will help see if A-PRF improves the final cosmetic look and gum health.

Participants will:

* Have their blood drawn at the start of the surgery to create the A-PRF material.
* Receive the gum surgery with or without the A-PRF material. Visit the clinic for checkups and gum measurements at 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the surgery.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) combined with Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin (A-PRF)

The surgical procedure involves mechanical root debridement and chemical conditioning with 24% EDTA. An Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin (A-PRF) membrane, prepared intra-operatively from the patient's venous blood using low-speed centrifugation (1500 rpm for 14 minutes), is adapted over the exposed root surface and secured with resorbable sutures. A Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) is then mobilized, advanced coronally to completely cover the A-PRF membrane and the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), and secured.

PROCEDURE

Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) alone

The surgical procedure involves mechanical root debridement and chemical conditioning with 24% EDTA. A Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) is mobilized and advanced coronally to completely cover the exposed root surface and the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) without the use of any additional grafting material or A-PRF membrane. The flap is then secured.
