Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of PRF, CGF and AFG application on early wound healing after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty operations. In the study designed split mouth, gingivectomy and gingivoplasty surgery were performed on 19 patients. The postoperative PRF, CGF, and AFG applied areas were compared with the control regions. 0th,7 th,14 th and 28 th on the days, the surgical area was painted with mira-2-tone solution and evaluated in the ImageJ program. Measurements of clinical periodontal parameters including PI, GI, SC and SD were recorded at the beginning, after IPT and 28 days after the operation. Wound healing was evaluated with H2O2 test, VAS-Pain, and LTH index on 7th, 14th and 28th days. The patients were asked to evaluate their aesthetic perceptions on the VAS aesthetic scale.


Description:

Study design and patient selection In this randomized, controlled, split-mouth (lower, upper jaw, right and left anterior regions) clinical study, who applied to İnönü University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Periodontology between January 2020 and May 2020, due to gingival problems, chronic examination was performed. included individuals diagnosed with inflammatory gingival enlargement. All patients received initial periodontal therapy (BPT). The patients were called for control after 2 weeks and surgery was planned for the patients who provided adequate oral hygiene. In our study, the vertical DM index, first described by Goaz and Angelopoulos, and later modified by Damm and Miller (DM), was used to classify the gingival enlargement in the vertical direction (1). In order to classify the bucco-lingual gingival growths in the interdental papillae, the horizontal MB index, first described by Seymour et al. And later modified by Miranda and Brunet (MB), was used (2). As a result of the measurements made, grades other than score 0 according to the DB and MB indices were accepted as having gingival enlargement. The distribution of control (n = 19) and three test groups (n = 19, n = 19, n = 19) after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty was randomized (block randomization). Clinical Measurements In clinical periodontal evaluation, plaque index (PI) (3), gingival index (GI) (4), bleeding on probing (SC) and probing depth (SD ) measurements were performed at baseline (T0), after BPT (T1) and on the 28th day (T2) after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty operation. Measurements were made in a total of 6 regions of all teeth: mesio-buccal, mid-buccal, disto-buccal, disto-lingual / palatinal, mid-lingual / palatinal and mesio-lingual / palatinal. Clinical periodontal measurements of all teeth of the individuals included in the study were performed by a single investigator (E.B.). Gingivectomy and gingivoplasty Before surgery, all patients were gargled with 0.12% chlorhexidine for 1 minute. The incision lines were determined by applying infiltrative anesthesia (Maxicaine Fort) to the areas to be operated, and the external bevel incision was performed with a # 15 scalpel (Broche® Medical scalpel tip; carbon steel) and a Kirkland blade (Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL, USA). Orban blade (Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL, USA) was used in the interproximal areas. After the incision was completed, the remaining gum pieces were removed with the help of periodontal curette and microsurgical scissors (Hu-Friedy, Chicago, IL, USA). Then gingivoplasty was performed. After gingivectomy and gingivoplasty, the control areas were left to recover spontaneously. PRF, CGF and AFG were applied to the test areas. Surgical areas in control and test areas were covered with a periodontal pat (Coe-Pak, lsip, IL, USA). Preparation of platelet-rich fibrin membrane Blood taken from the antecubital veins of the patients was collected into 10 ml sterile glass-covered plastic tubes (Vacuette serum tubes, Greiner Bio-one) that did not contain anticoagulants. The collected venous blood was placed in the PC-02 (Process, Nice, France) centrifuge device and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 (400xg) minutes (5). The obtained PRF was taken out of the tube, placed in the PRF-BOX and turned into a membrane by compressing with light pressure for about 1 minute. The prepared PRF membranes were applied to the surgical operation area and the operation area was closed with a periodontal pat. Preparation of concentrated growth factor membrane Blood taken from the antecubital veins of the patients was collected into 10 ml sterile glass-covered plastic tubes (Vacuette serum tubes, Greiner Bio-one) that did not contain anticoagulants. These tubes were then centrifuged in a centrifuge device (Medifuge; Silfradent srl, Sofia, Italy) using a program with the following features: acceleration for 30 seconds followed by 2 minutes (692xg) at 2700 rpm, 4 minutes (547xg) at 2400 rpm, 2700 rpm. Centrifugation for 4 minutes (592xg) at 3000 rpm for 3 minutes (855xg) and finally deceleration for 36 seconds (6). After centrifugation, CGF was taken from the middle part of the tube, placed in PRF-BOX and turned into a membrane by compressing with light pressure for about 1 minute. Prepared CGF membranes were applied to the surgical operation area and the operation area was closed with a periodontal pat. Preparation of autologous fibrin glue Venous blood taken from the patient was transferred to a 9 ml glass-covered plastic tube (Vacuette serum tubes, Greiner Bio-one) that did not contain any anticoagulants. Sohn et al. In the protocol he recommended (7), the venous blood collected in the tube was centrifuged in a centrifuge device (Medifuge, Silfradent, Italy) at 2700 rpm (approximately 692 g) for 2 min. AFG obtained from the upper part of the tube after centrifugation was collected with the help of an injector and transferred to the metal body. The polymerization was allowed for 15-20 minutes. After polymerization was completed, AFG was applied to the surgical operation area and the operation area was covered with a periodontal pat. Post Operative Care and Suggestion Patients were advised to protect the wound area with periodontal pats from trauma, not to consume too hot and too cold foods, and to eat soft foods. It was stated that the pat should be kept in the mouth for 1 week, and if the pat was damaged during this period, they should apply to our clinic immediately. Patients were prescribed paracetamol-containing analgesic (Parol 500 mg) and a mouthwash containing 0.12% chlorhexidine to use three times a day for a week. The patients were only advised not to brush their teeth in the operation area for 1 week. It was stated that he should provide oral hygiene in areas that were not operated. They were advised to use an extra soft toothbrush in the area after the pat was removed. Surface area determination Mira-2-tone, a plaque staining agent (GMBH & Co., Duisburg, Germany), was used to detect wound surface epithelization at baseline, postoperative 7, 14, and 28 days. Standardized photographs were taken from each patient to evaluate the dark stained areas after staining with Mira-2-tone in the gingiva where epithelialization was not completed and wound healing continued. During the photo shoot, the patients were seated upright and facing straight ahead. All photos were taken by a single person on the same camera (Nikon Coolpix 4500, Tokyo, Japan), at the same distance (20 cm) and light values (ISO-800). The photo size was scaled by using a 10 mm Williams periodontal probe during the photo taking. Wound surface epithelization was calculated using Image J software program (National Institutes of Health, USA ImageJ 1.48V) from the photographs obtained. Each measurement step was done by the same researcher (E.B.) each time. The calibration of the person who made the measurements was performed by repeating the wound surface epithelialization area measurement at one-week intervals on the photo images of 10 patients who had undergone gingivectomy and gingivoplasty surgery and were not included in the study. In these two separate evaluations, the calculations were 95% compatible. Epithelialization test In order to evaluate the wound surface epithelization during the healing process, 3% H2O2 was applied to the surface of the operation area with the help of an injector. As a result of the decomposition of H2O2 into water and oxygen through the catalase enzyme released by the blood cells present in the wound area, it was evaluated as "epithelization incomplete" if foaming was observed with oxygen formation, and "epithelization completed" if foaming was not observed . H2O2 test was performed at the controls on the 7th, 14th and 28th days after the operation. Healing index Landry, Turnbull, and Howley (LTH) index, which classified the healing process according to wound surface redness, presence of bleeding, granulation tissue, epithelization, and suppuration (8). The wound healing process with LTH index was performed at the postoperative 7th, 14th and 28th days. Postoperative pain and aesthetic VAS was used for postoperative pain and aesthetic evaluation (9). The patient's 7th, 14th He was asked to evaluate the level of pain he felt from 1 to 10 according to the VAS-Pain (1: low pain, 10: severe pain) scale in the control sessions on the 28th and 28th days. In the control session on the 28th day, the patients were asked to evaluate their aesthetic perceptions from 1 to 10 according to the VAS-Aesthetics (1: dissatisfied, 10: very satisfied) scale.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Determination of non-epithelialized areas on the wound surface Mira-2 tone solution was used to identify non-epithelialized areas on wound surfaces after gingivectomy and gingivoplasty. Mira-2 tone was applied to the wound surfaces and dark dyed areas were calculated as mm2 in Image j program. Postoperative 0, 7, 14 and 28 days, the change of the stained area with the mira-2 tone in the wound surface area was recorded.
Primary Epithelialization test H2O2 was used to identify non-epithelialized areas. If bubbling is observed after the application of H202 to the wound surface, epithelialization was incomplete, if bubbling was not observed, epithelialization was recorded as completed. The change in wound surface epithelization was evaluated on the 7th, 14th and 28th days postoperatively.
Primary Healing index Landry, Turnbull, Howley (LTH) index, which classified the healing process according to wound surface redness, presence of bleeding, granulation tissue, epithelization, and suppuration, was evaluated. Wound healing evaluation with LTH index was performed at the postoperative 7th, 14th and 28th day controls.
Primary Postoperative pain VAS was used for postoperative pain assessment. The patients were asked to evaluate the level of pain from 1 to 10 according to the VAS-Pain (1: low pain, 10: severe pain) scale during the control sessions. Evaluation of VAS-Pain change on postoperative 7th, 14th and 28th days.
