Clinical Trial Summary

This study will evaluate the effect of PRF (platelet rich fibrin) on the healing of apicomarginal defects. Healing of the defects will be assessed 2 dimensionaly by periapical radiograph and 3 dimensionaly using CBCT.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients with apicomarginal defects as per the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided into two groups - (1) Test group - The denuded root surface will be covered by PRF (Choukron's method) and (2) Control group -No use of autologous platelet aggregate during periapical surgery. Radiographic and clinical healing will be assessed after 12 months, 2D healing will be assessed by Rud and Molven criteria and 3D healing will be assessed by Modified Penn 3D criteria.The clinical parameters recorded including periodontal pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and gingival margin position (GMP) will be measured on buccal aspect of the interproximal space and mid buccal aspect of the involved teeth using Williams 'O' periodontal probe.Routine examination procedure will be used to evaluate any evidence of signs and/or symptoms. ;
