Disc Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Intra-articular Injection of Injectable Platelet-rich Fibrin on Disc Displacement Without Reduction
This randomized clinical study was conducted on patients with disc displacement without reduction. Patient was selected one of the two study groups: control group received only arthrocentesis or test group received arthrocentesis + injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF). As primary outcome variable, pain was recorded at preoperatively and at postoperatively 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months. Maximum mouth opening, lateral and protrusive movements were formed as secondary outcome variables.
