PRF Therapy for Pocket Reduction

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Periodontal regenerative therapy has focused on various non-surgical and surgical treatment methods. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has shown to possess multiple uses, including properties that promote healing of both soft and hard tissues. In the present study, we hypothesized that the addition of PRF into periodontal pockets, as an adjunct to conventional scaling and root planing (SRP), would enhance the outcomes of non-surgical periodontal therapy. This split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial included 26 periodontal pocket sites in 13 patients with periodontitis. The pockets were randomly assigned as either test or control sites. In the test group, PRF was placed as an adjunct to SRP, while the control group received SRP alone. Probing pocket depths (PPD), clinical attachment levels (CAL), gingival recession (GR), plaque index (PI), and gingivitis index (GI) were measured at baseline and at six weeks. The wound healing index was measured during the six-week follow-up period.
