Abstract: This study aimed to perform a clinical and tomographic evaluation of root coverage of Miller class I and II gingival recessions, treated with the tunnel technique associated with connective tissue graft (CTG) or leukocyte- platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) membrane. Eleven patients with bilateral recessions were selected, and a total of 59 sites, 29 in the control group (treated with connective tissue graft), and 30 in the test group (treated with leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin membrane). Clinical evaluations of probing depth, clinical attachment level, amount of attached gingiva, and recession extension were performed at baseline and after three and six months of surgical procedure.
