About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Advanced Platelet-rich Fibrin in Management of Periodontal Intrabony Defects

The aim of this study is to clinically and radiographically evaluate the efficacy of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) when used with biphasic alloplast in the management of intrabony defects in patients with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis.

Read the detailed description

Biphasic alloplasts have been successfully used in management of intrabony defects. Advanced platelet-rich fibrin is believed to contain higher amount of growth factors and white blood cells than the well known PRF. Although there are some studies on the use of PRF in the treatment of intrabony defects, to date none of them evaluate the effect of the A-PRF. Therefore, a randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted to compare the healing of intrabony defects treated with A-PRF/biphasic alloplast combination and to those obtained with biphasic alloplast mixed with saline. Using a parallel arm design, 22 intrabony defects were randomly treated with either biphasic alloplast mixed with saline (control group) or with A-PRF/ biphasic alloplast combination (test group). The following clinical parameters were recorded at baseline, three and six months postoperatively : plaque index (PI), modified gingival index (MGI), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), while these radiographic measurements were recorded at baseline and six months postoperatively: bone fill and bone density.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Advanced platelet-rich fibrin mixed with biphasic alloplastProcedure or surgery

    mucoperiosteal flaps will be reflected to expose the defects , which will be debrided properly and finally filled with the freshly prepared Advanced platelet-rich fibrin mixed with the biphasic alloplast.

  • Biphasic alloplast mixed with salineProcedure or surgery

    mucoperiosteal flap will be reflected to expose and clean the intrabony defect ,then it will be filled with biphasic alloplast mixed with saline.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical attachment level change

    The distance from cemento-enamel junction to the depth of the sulcus recorded by a periodontal probe at baseline , 3 and 6 months postoperatively

    Measured: Baseline , 3 and 6 months posoperatively

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Probing depth change:

    The distance from the gingival margin to the depth of the sulcus recorded by a periodontal probe at baseline and 6 months postoperatively

    Measured: Baseline , 3 and 6 months postoperatively

  2. Radiographic bone density

    Measuring the bone density before and after the procedure using CBCT

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months postoperatively

  3. Radiographic bone fill

    The actual bone formation in the intrabony defect measured on a CBCT in comparison to the baseline CBCT

    Measured: Baseline and 6 months postoperatively
