Could a blood clot and a skin filler fix receding gums?

NCT ID NCT07662447

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adding hyaluronic acid to a platelet-rich fibrin membrane improves the treatment of receding gums. Thirty adults with a specific type of gum recession will receive either the PRF membrane alone or with hyaluronic acid, alongside a surgical flap procedure. The main goal is to see how much of the exposed tooth root is covered, and secondary goals include measuring pain after the procedure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

platelet-rich fibrin and hyaluronic acid

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a more effective, less painful treatment for receding gums using the body's own healing factors.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The added benefit of hyaluronic acid over PRF alone is uncertain.
