Currently, the gold standard<\/jats:italic> in this procedure is still represented by free gingival grafts (FGGs); however, they require a second surgical site, which means more morbidity for the patient and a higher risk of surgical complications, as well as surgical time and chromatic alteration of the recipient area.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Case Presentation<\/jats:title>This is a description of the vestibuloplasty technique with platelet\u2010rich fibrin (PRF) in a 35\u2010year\u2010old female patient with a thin gingival phenotype and no medical history of interest. The reason for consultation was tooth sensitivity during brushing and the presence of recessions in the fifth sextant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>The use of PRF as a graft biomaterial in vestibuloplasty is a valid and effective option as an alternative to secondary epithelialization of the surgical site, as well as to FGGs, with acceptable results in terms of KT gain and root coverage, and with minimal postoperative discomfort.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Key points<\/jats:title>Why is this case new information?\n\nThe use of PRF is an interesting option as an alternative to second\u2010intention healing, as FGGs in vestibuloplasty.<\/jats:p><\/jats:list-item>\n<\/jats:list><\/jats:p>What are the keys to successful management of this case?\n\nThe most important part of the membranes is the part that was in close relation to the erythrocyte fraction in the blood collection tube, so this part must be oriented toward the recipient bed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:list-item>\nA minimum of four membranes should be obtained, overlapping one on top of the other.<\/jats:p><\/jats:list-item>\n<\/jats:list><\/jats:p>What are the primary
