EFFICIENCY OF PLATELET-RICH FIBRIN IN PATIENTS WITH STAGE III PERIODONTITIS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: The aim of the present clinical study was to determine the additive effects of PRF in the treatment of stage III periodontitis. Methods: Forty teeth in twenty patients were randomly assigned to PRF with open flap deridement group (experimental group) or open flap deridement group (control group). Clinical parameters and x ray included gingival index(GI) pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), infrabony defect depth (IBD), bone fill (BF) were evaluated at baseline, 3-month, and at a 6-month evaluation. Wound healing index (WWHI) were evaluated at two weeks after surgery. Results: After 6-months surgical, result in a significant decrease in probing pocket depth 2,4±0,7 mm in group PRF+OFD compared with the control 1,5±0,6 mm ; clinical attachment level 2,6±0,8 mm in group PRF+OFD, 1,5±0,6 mm in group OFD; infrabony defect depth 1,7±0,4 mm in group PRF+OFD, 0,6±0,6 mm in group OFD and increase percentage in bone fill 35,7%±9,7% in group PRF+OFD, 16,5%±18,0 % in group OFD. Wound healing index were evaluated at two weeks after surgery: good wound healing 95% in group PRF+OFD compared with the control 65%. Conclusions: These findings indicate that a combination of PRF and open flap deridement is more effective than open flap deridement alone for the treatment of stage III periodontitis.
