About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Platelet Rich Fibrin Use in the Treatment of Dry Socket.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the influence of PRF application in case of alveolar osteitis.

Read the detailed description

The main objective was to compare the effects of using two different methods in the treatment of dry socket (alveolar osteitis), which is a postoperative complication of dental extraction. The first was Nipas, applied, if dry socket was diagnosed following a tooth extraction. In case of subsequent extraction of homonymous tooth and reoccurrence of dry socket, patients were treated with application of PRF.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Intensity of pain vs. PRF and Nipas application

    In order to evaluate the relationship between intensity of pain after application of PRF and Nipas, Numeric Rating Scale pain scale is used. NRS is a horizontal line with an eleven point numeric range. It is labeled from zero to ten, with zero being an example of someone with no pain and ten being the worst pain possible.

    The higher score means worse outcome in case of present study.

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Influence of treatment on bacteria levels in wounds

    The second part of the study was dedicated to analyzing the number of bacteria in tooth extraction wounds.

    Measured: 24 hours
