Brief Summary: The present study aimed to increase the thickness of the gingiva and prevent possible crestal bone resorption by placing the CTG or T-PRF membrane under the mucosa immediately after the implant treatment in individuals with thin gingival phenotype. The null hypothesis was that T-PRF used simultaneously with implant placement can be considered an alternative to CTG.
Detailed Description: Although connective tissue graft (CTG) is considered as the best technique for soft tissue augmentation, limited supply of donor tissue because of palatal vessels and nerves, and postoperative pain may require alternative methods.

The purpose of this study is to reduce the crestal bone resorption around the implant site by augmenting the Peri-Implant Soft Tissue with T-PRF (titanium prepared platelet-rich fibrin) or CTG and to compare the effectiveness of the two techniques.

Through simultaneous augmentation of the soft tissue by T-PRF or CTG, a total of 30 implants were implanted in 30 patients (12 males, 18 females) with a mean age of 38.4 years. In the test group, implants were placed in thin tissues and thickened with T- PRF membrane at the same time, while in the control group, implants were placed in thin tissues and thickened with CTG at the same time. During the surgery (T 0 ) and at postoperative 3 months (T 1 ), keratinised tissue width (KTW) and Peri-Implant soft tissue thickness (STT) were measured from three points: occlusal part of the alveolar crest (OAC), midbuccal mucosa level (MBML), and over 1 mm of mucogingival junction (MGJ1).
