Comparative analysis of platelet-rich fibrin membrane and 0.2% hyaluronic acid gel on healing following gingival depigmentation procedure. J Indian Soc Periodontol 2023; 27:636-641. [PMID: 38434500 PMCID: PMC10906787 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_291_22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) accelerates wound healing by promoting faster cicatricial tissue remodeling and excellent neovascularization. Hyaluronic acid (HA) being biocompatible, anti-inflammatory, and proangiogenic leads to improvement in the rate of wound healing. Aim The aim of this study was to compare the effect of PRF membrane and 0.2% HA gel on wounds after gingival depigmentation surgery. Materials and Methods This study was carried out on 30 systemically healthy individuals recruited from the pool of patients who visited the department of periodontology. After depigmentation procedure in every patient, the sites were divided into three even groups. Group A received PRF membrane and periodontal dressing, Group B received 0.2% HA gel application and periodontal dressing, and Group C served as a control group in which only periodontal dressing was placed. The individuals were evaluated for the healing index (HI) and Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) on the 3rd and 5th day. Epithelialization test (ET) was performed on the 5th day. Gingival biotype was reassessed and compared to preoperative value after 3 months. The clinical trial was expressed in terms of mean and standard deviation. Intra-group comparison and inter-group comparison were done through the Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA test. All statistical tests were performed through SPSS version 25.0 (IBM). Results The inter-group statistical analysis concerning NRS, HI, and ET showed statistically significant results in Groups A and B compared to Group C (P < 0.05), while gingival biotype showed statistically significant results in Group A compared to Groups B and C. Conclusion The use of PRF membrane and HA gel to protect the raw wound site of depigmented gingiva proved to be an effective approach, resulting in faster healing.

Autologous tooth bone graft block compared with advanced platelet-rich fibrin in alveolar ridge preservation: A clinico-radiographic study. J Indian Soc Periodontol 2023; 27:619-625. [PMID: 38434501 PMCID: PMC10906784 DOI: 10.4103/jisp.jisp_43_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives To determine the clinico-radiographic efficiency of partially demineralized dentin matrix block (PDDM block), a mixture of PDDM with advanced-platelet-rich fibrin+ (A-PRF+) and injectable platelet-rich fibrin versus A-PRF+ alone in alveolar socket preservation. Materials and Methods Sixteen molar teeth indicated for extraction were randomly assigned into two groups. For the test group, sockets were packed with PDDM block and control group, with A-PRF+ plug alone. Clinical and radiographic cone-beam computed tomography methods were used to assess the horizontal and vertical ridge dimensional changes at baseline and 4 months. Results Clinically, the mid buccal and palatal crestal height (10.25 ± 0.86 and 9.75 ± 0.28 mm) and alveolar ridge width (11.37 ± 0.25 mm) were significantly higher in the test group as compared to the control group, 4 months after tooth extraction (P < 0.01). Radiographically, there was improved apposition and nonsignificant resorption for the test group in ridge height and width, whereas statistically significant higher resorption was seen in the control group at 4 months. Conclusion The application of the PDDM block demonstrated efficacy in maintaining the dimensions of the extraction socket when compared to A-PRF+ alone. This autologous and immune-free regenerative biomaterial is widely obtainable, offering a glimpse into the potential of next-generation biofuels for regeneration.

Abstract
Wound healing is a highly orchestrated biological process characterized by sequential phases involving inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling, and the role of endogenous electrical signals in regulating these phases has been highlighted. Recently, external electrostimulation has been shown to enhance these processes by promoting cell migration, extracellular matrix formation, and growth factor release while suppressing pro-inflammatory signals and reducing the risk of infection. Among the innovative approaches, piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators have emerged as the next generation of flexible and wireless electronics designed for energy harvesting and efficiently converting mechanical energy into electrical power. In this review, we discuss recent advances in the emerging field of nanogenerators for harnessing electrical stimulation to accelerate wound healing. We elucidate the fundamental mechanisms of wound healing and relevant bioelectric physiology, as well as the principles underlying each nanogenerator technology, and review their preclinical applications. In addition, we address the prominent challenges and outline the future prospects for this emerging era of electrical wound-healing devices.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This randomized controlled clinical trial compared the effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and concentrated growth factor (CGF) on early bone healing after endodontic microsurgery. METHODS Eighteen patients with an isolated periapical lesion < 10 mm in the maxillary anterior region were randomly assigned to three groups: control, PRF, or CGF. Endodontic microsurgery was performed and PRF or CGF membranes were placed over the bone defects in the experimental groups. The volume of the bone defect at postoperative one week, three months, and six months was evaluated using cone-beam computed tomography and Mimics software. The results were statistically analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and post-hoc Mann-Whitney U test with Bonferroni correction. RESULTS At the three-month follow-up, the PRF and CGF groups showed significantly greater bone healing compared with the control group (p > 0.05). However, no significant difference was observed between the PRF and CGF groups. At the six-month follow-up, no significant differences were observed between the groups. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested that PRF and CGF promote early bone healing after endodontic microsurgery.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1903. [PMID: 38003952 PMCID: PMC10673335 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59111903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate whose use in clinical practice has been widely disseminated. This has led to the development of several commercial protocols, creating great confusion as to the terminology and implications of each of them. This integrative review aims to identify the critical factors of each of the phases of the solid-based PRF matrix protocol and their possible influence on their macro- and microscopic characteristics. An electronic search of the MEDLINE database (via PubMed), Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS, and OpenGrey was carried out. The search was temporarily restricted from 2001 to 2022. After searching, 43 studies were included that met the established criteria. There were numerous factors to consider in the PRF protocol, such as the material of the blood collection tubes, the duration of phlebotomy, the parameters related to blood centrifugation, the time from centrifugation to dehydration of the fibrin clots and their dehydration into membranes, as well as the time to clinical use. These factors influenced the macro- and microscopic characteristics of the PRF and its physical properties, so knowledge of these factors allows for the production of optimised PRF by combining the protocols and materials.

Abstract
In dental implantology, alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) has emerged as a standard technique to address dimensional changes that affect alveolar ridge morphology following tooth loss. Various alternative graft materials, including xenografts, alloplasts, and allografts, have been effectively employed in fresh extraction sites for ARP. Current evidence suggests that these materials primarily serve as bio-scaffolds, which are slowly incorporated, thus necessitating a waiting period of at least 4-6 months before implant placement. Consequently, the ARP technique extends the overall duration of implant treatment by several months. Recently, the incorporation of a form of autologous platelet concentrate, known as platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), has been advocated in conjunction with ARP as a method of bioenhancement of soft- and hard-tissue healing and regeneration. PRF contains platelet-derived growth factors, hormones, and bioactive components like cytokines that have demonstrated the ability to stimulate angiogenesis and tissue regeneration throughout all phases of wound healing. Additionally, the concentration of leukocytes present in the PRF matrix plays a vital role in tissue healing and regeneration as part of the osteoimmune response. The reported advantages of incorporating autogenous PRF platelet concentrates during ARP encompass reduced healing time, improved angiogenesis and bone regeneration, socket sealing through the fibrin matrix, antibacterial properties, and decreased post-extraction pain and infection risk. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to review the existing evidence regarding the application of PRF in alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) following tooth extraction. Two clinical case studies are presented, wherein ARP was enhanced with PRF, followed by implant placement within a relatively short period of 8 weeks. These cases serve as further proof of concept for supporting the adjuvant use of PRF to enhance healing and accelerate implant placement after ARP.

Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation blood concentrate that serves as an autologous approach for both soft and hard tissue regeneration. It provides a scaffold for cell interaction and promotes the local release of growth factors. PRF has been investigated as an alternative to bone tissue therapy, with the potential to expedite wound healing and bone regeneration, though the mechanisms involved are not yet fully understood. This review aims to explore the in vitro evidence of PRF's effects on the behavior of mineralizing cells related to bone tissue regeneration. A systematic electronic search was conducted up to August 2023, utilizing three databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. A total of 76 studies were selected, which presented in vitro evidence of PRF's usefulness, either alone or in conjunction with other biomaterials, for bone tissue treatment. PRF membranes' influence on the proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of bone cells is linked to the constant release of growth factors, resulting in changes in crucial markers of bone cell metabolism and behavior. This further reinforces their therapeutic potential in wound healing and bone regeneration. While there are some notable differences among the studies, the overall results suggest a positive effect of PRF on cell proliferation, differentiation, mineralization, and a reduction in inflammation. This points to its therapeutic potential in the field of regenerative medicine. Collectively, these findings may help enhance our understanding of how PRF impacts basic physiological processes in bone and mineralized tissue.

Abstract
This case report presents a novel non-surgical approach for managing a substantial periapical lesion associated with tooth 12 using a combination of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). A 28-year-old male patient presented with pus discharge and intermittent swelling following a history of dental trauma. Clinical and radiographic assessments confirmed a large periapical cyst associated with tooth 12. The treatment involved root canal therapy with calcium hydroxide medication, leading to symptom relief. Subsequently, i-PRF combined with MTA was used as a regenerative material for periapical healing. Follow-up examinations at three, six, and nine months showed complete resolution of symptoms and radiographic evidence of lesion healing. This innovative technique demonstrates the potential of i-PRF and MTA synergy in the non-surgical management of periapical lesions, avoiding the risks associated with surgical interventions and promoting effective tissue healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Free gingival graft (FGG) has been successfully used in the treatment of gingival recessions, as it is the most predictable technique for increasing the attached gingiva. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of liquid platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with FGG on root surface coverage as root surface biomodification. MATERIALS AND METHODS The research sample consisted of 32 surgical sites in 16 patients, they had 2 bilateral recessions in the incisor area of the same dental arch, the sample was divided into 2 groups randomly, and liquid PRF was applied in the first group with the FGG (experimental group), and in the second group the FGG was applied alone (control group). Gingival recession depth (RD) and width of attached gingiva (WAG) were measured before starting, after 1, 3, and 6 months. The percentage of root coverage (RC) was calculated after 6 months. Healing Index (HI) was recorded after 1 week, 2 weeks, and 1 month. RESULTS Both groups showed a reduction in gingival RD during all follow-up periods but the difference between both groups was not statistically significant (p > 0.05) at 1 and 3 months, whereas there were significant differences at 6 months (p = 0.001). RC was better in the liquid PRF group than in the control group, but this difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). The postoperative 7th and 14th days HI scores of the liquid PRF group were significantly better than the control group (p = 0.000 and p = 0.004, respectively), whereas there were no significant differences in HI scores between both groups at first month (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS According to the results, the addition of liquid PRF to the root surface with FGG showed further development in terms of decreasing RD, increasing WAG, and accelerated wound-healing.

Abstract
In the past decades, personalized regenerative medicine has gained increased attention. Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs) such as PRP, PRGF, and L-PRF, all serving as a source of a large variety of cells and growth factors that participate in hard and soft tissue healing and regeneration, could play a significant role in regenerative periodontal procedures. This narrative review evaluated the relative impact of APCs in alveolar ridge preservation, sinus floor augmentation, and the regeneration of bony craters around teeth, both as a single substitute or in combination with a xenograft. L-PRF has a significant beneficial effect on alveolar ridge preservation ( bone quality). The data for PRGF are less convincing, and PRP is controversial. L-PRF can successfully be used as a single substitute during transcrestal (≥3.5 mm bone gain) as well as 1-stage lateral window sinus floor elevation (>5 mm bone gain). For PRGF and especially PRP the data are very scarce. In the treatment of bony craters around teeth, during open flap debridement, L-PRF as a single substitute showed significant adjunctive benefits (e.g., >PPD reduction, >CAL gain, >crater depth reduction). The data for PRP and PRGF were non-conclusive. Adding PRP or L-PRF to a xenograft during OFD resulted in additional improvements (>PPD reduction, >CAL gain, >bone fill), for PRGF no data were found. Autologous platelet concentrates demonstrated to enhance bone and soft tissue healing in periodontal regenerative procedures. The data for L-PRF were most convincing. L-PRF also has the advantage of a greater simplicity of production, and its 100% autologous character.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acne scars cause significant psychosocial stress. Despite a wide armamentarium, there is a constant search for an effective modality. Autologous injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) is a promising novel option in the management of atrophic scars. OBJECTIVE To compare efficacy of autologous i-PRF with microneedling against microneedling alone in atrophic acne scars. MATERIALS AND METHODS A split-face prospective interventional study was conducted on 40 patients with atrophic acne scars. Autologous i-PRF and normal saline were injected into each scar on right (study) and left (control) sides, respectively, followed by microneedling on both sides. Four sessions were performed at monthly intervals with follow-up at 2 months. For assessment, Goodman and Baron (GB) scale, physician subjective score, and patient satisfaction scores were used. RESULTS Mean baseline GB grade on each side was 3.45. At 24 weeks, mean GB grade was significantly reduced on the study side (1.47, SD 0.56) than control side (3.33, SD 0.53). Mean patient satisfaction score was significantly higher on the right side (5.95) compared with the left side (5.35). Rolling scars responded the best followed by boxcar and ice-pick scars. CONCLUSION Autologous i-PRF and microneedling act synergistically to improve acne scars.

Smoczer C, Yuth KR, Askar MA, Young LA, Paurazas SB. Growth Factors Released from Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin in the Presence of Calcium-Based Silicate Materials and Their Impact on the Viability and Migration of Stem Cells of Apical Papilla. Dent J (Basel) 2023; 11:220. [PMID: 37754340 PMCID: PMC10530054 DOI: 10.3390/dj11090220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) provides the scaffold and growth factors necessary for stem cells to proliferate and differentiate in successful regenerative endodontic procedures. This study investigates the release of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from A-PRF in cell culture media in the presence and absence of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Biodentine. Additionally, this research assesses the viability and migration of stem cells of the apical papilla (SCAP) in previously conditioned media. A-PRF obtained from 14 participants were incubated for 7 days in cell culture media alone or via layering with MTA or Biodentine discs and the release of selected growth factors in the media was evaluated using ELISA. The viability of SCAP grown in conditioned media was measured using the CCK8 assay, while SCAP migration was assessed via a transwell assay by counting migrated cells. The release of TGF-β1, PDGF, and VEGF was significantly higher in media with A-PRF alone than in the presence of either calcium-based silicate material (p < 0.05), which showed no difference from the no-A-PRF control (p < 0.05). None of the tested growth factors released in the A-PRF-conditioned media correlated with clot weight. A-PRF-conditioned media, both with and without calcium-based silicate materials, did not impact SCAP viability and migration (p > 0.05). This study shows that SCAP behavior is not impacted by the decrease in growth factor released in the presence of calcium-based silicate materials and that their role in REPs warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an infectious disease characterized by the inflammatory destruction of the tooth supporting tissues. In multi-rooted teeth, this process leads to periodontal destruction within furcations creating defects demanding in terms of treatment. Regeneration of class II furcation involvement, although possible, is considered an unpredictable procedure, especially in terms of the bone fill. The interest in wound healing improvement by additional use of autologous concentrates of growth factors remains high in many fields of dentistry. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate and biomaterial. PRF forms a solid fibrin matrix, which is slowly remodeled comparable to the natural blood clot. Its utilization is associated with release of growth factors and glycoproteins over a long period of time. PRF activates alkaline phosphates, which show osteoblastic activity and this activation influences the bone formation. The aim of this review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was to evaluate the adjunctive use of platelet-rich fibrin in surgical treatment of furcation defects.

Wang XL. Comparison of Platelet-Rich Fibrin and Iodoform Gauze in the Treatment of Localized Alveolitis. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2023; 81:1155-1160. [PMID: 37364857 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2023.06.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Iodoform gauze is commonly used to treat patients with localized alveolitis; however, saliva can easily dilute the iodoform concentration. This study aimed to compare the efficacies of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and iodoform gauze in treating localized alveolitis. METHODS This prospective randomized controlled trial enrolled patients with localized alveolitis who received treatment at our hospital from January 2018 to July 2021. They were randomly assigned to the control (treated with iodoform gauze) or experimental (treated with PRF) groups. Treatment method was the predictor variable. The primary outcome variable was clinical efficacy, defined as symptom resolution 1 week after treatment. Secondary outcome variables included granulation tissue (GT) quantitative score, analgesic drug dosage, and pain score determined using a visual analog scale (VAS). Patient demographics were used as covariates. Data analysis was performed by carrying out the χ2 and Mann-Whitney rank sum tests; P values <.05 indicated statistical significance. RESULTS This study included 60 patients, equally and randomly divided into the control and PRF groups (n = 30 each). There were no significant differences in demographic characteristics of patients between the 2 groups. One week after treatment, the PRF group showed a higher healing rate (93.3% vs 60.0%) and better GT quantitative score (3.13 ± 0.63 vs 1.70 ± 0.75) than the control group (P < .05). Moreover, the number of analgesic tablets consumed within 1 week postoperatively was lesser in the PRF group than in the control group (3.93 ± 1.53 vs 9.67 ± 3.16, P < .05). The PRF group exhibited significantly lower VAS pain scores than those of the control group on the 3rd day (1.10 ± 1.03 vs 4.17 ± 1.49) and 7th day (0.30 ± 0.60 vs 1.73 ± 1.44, P < .05) postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Compared with iodoform gauze, PRF is associated with higher healing rate, faster promotion of GT growth in the extraction socket, better relief of alveolar pain, and lower intake of analgesic drugs when treating localized alveolitis.

Cureus 2023; 15:e46196. [PMID: 37905284 PMCID: PMC10613344 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.46196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) and leukocyte and platelet-rich fibrin (l-PRF) are both blood-derived products used in regenerative medicine and dentistry. They contain platelets, growth factors, and leukocytes, which can have antimicrobial properties to some extent, but their primary purpose is tissue regeneration and wound healing. i-PRF and l-PRF may have some indirect antimicrobial properties due to their composition and ability to enhance tissue healing and immune responses, and they are primarily used in dentistry for their regenerative and wound healing capabilities rather than as standalone antimicrobial agents. This study aims to compare the anti-microbial activity of i-PRF and l-PRF against oral microbes. Methodology This study included 30 patients who were selected using G*Power software version 3.1 (Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, Düsseldorf, Germany) calculation with the population size. The plaque samples were collected from the subjects using area-specific Gracey curettes used for scaling and root planing to remove plaque and calculus from the teeth and root surfaces. The collected plaque samples were transferred to a tube containing 5 ml of saline (sterile saltwater). The purpose of using saline is to preserve the microbial content of the plaque sample without altering the microbial composition. To obtain a uniform solution, the samples in the saline-containing tube were vortexed for 5 minutes. After vertexing, a small amount of the suspension (0.1 ml) was taken for further analysis. The 0.1 ml suspension was used to plate blood agar using the streak method. A loop or needle is used to streak the sample back and forth across the surface of the agar, leading to the dilution and separation of the bacteria. Results Results state that i-PRF has a maximum zone of inhibition (2.19±0.47 mm) when compared with metronidazole (0.14±0.09 mm). It can be stated that platelet concentrates demonstrate better antimicrobial activity due to their higher oxygen metabolites which help in the aggregation and internalization of microorganisms, which enhances the clearance of pathogens from the bloodstream. Paired t-test has been used for the comparison between the two groups, and the p-value is >0.05 stating that the difference is statistically significant. Conclusion The present study states that i-PRF demonstrated better antimicrobial efficacy as compared to l-PRF. Hence, i-PRF helps in reducing microbial load at the periodontally infected sites when compared with l-PRF.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study, we investigated the effects of leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) on implant stability and alterations in the marginal bone surrounding posterior maxillary implants. METHODS This randomized clinical trial was conducted to compare the variable of L-PRF placement around maxillary implants. Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) was used to evaluate the implant stability immediately after surgery and at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks after surgery (t0 to t6, respectively). In addition, the amount of marginal bone changes around the implant at t6 was compared with the baseline using periapical radiography. RESULTS The RFA outcomes were statistically significant within each group (P < 0.001, Eta2 = 0.322); however, in none of the follow-ups and immediately after the surgery, there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of the implant stability quotient (ISQ) scores (P > 0.05). At t0, the test and control groups' respective mean levels of marginal bone loss around the implants were 0.4836 mm and 0.7343 mm, significantly different from the corresponding values at t6. On the other hand, marginal bone loss around the implant was not significantly different between the two groups in t0 and t6 (P = 0.532). CONCLUSIONS L-PRF did not improve the RFA outcomes of implants three months after implant placement, and changes in the ISQ values over time were the same in both groups. In addition, L-PRF had no superior effect on the marginal bone loss around the implants. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The research was registered in the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials on 22 December 2020 (No: IRCT20200624047906N1), available at http://www.irct.ir.

Abstract
In recent years, several types of platelet concentrates have been investigated and applied in many fields, particularly in the musculoskeletal system. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is an autologous biomaterial, a second-generation platelet concentrate containing platelets and growth factors in the form of fibrin membranes prepared from the blood of patients without additives. During tissue regeneration, platelet concentrates contain a higher percentage of leukocytes and a flexible fibrin net as a scaffold to improve cell migration in angiogenic, osteogenic, and antibacterial capacities during tissue regeneration. PRF enables the release of molecules over a longer period, which promotes tissue healing and regeneration. The potential of PRF to simulate the physiology and immunology of wound healing is also due to the high concentrations of released growth factors and anti-inflammatory cytokines that stimulate vessel formation, cell proliferation, and differentiation. These products have been used safely in clinical applications because of their autologous origin and minimally invasive nature. We focused on a narrative review of PRF therapy and its effects on musculoskeletal, oral, and maxillofacial surgeries and dermatology. We explored the components leading to the biological activity and the published preclinical and clinical research that supports its application in musculoskeletal therapy. The research generally supports the use of PRF as an adjuvant for various chronic muscle, cartilage, and tendon injuries. Further clinical trials are needed to prove the benefits of utilizing the potential of PRF.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study was conducted to clinically compare a commercially available combination of 70:30 nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) and beta tricalcium phosphate (βTCP) along with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with demineralized freeze-dried bone (DFDB) grafts along with PRF in small maxillofacial osseous defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty patients with one osseous defect were randomly distributed into two groups of 15 each: Group A and Group B. Group A patients received HA+βTCP+PRF while Group B received DFDB + PRF. Postoperative pain, swelling, wound dehiscence, and the presence or absence of infection were evaluated at various intervals up to seven postop days and compared between the two groups and within either group. A technetium 99m methylene diphosphonate (MDP 99mTc) scan was also done for a representative patient of either group at the end of three months to evaluate the fate of the graft. RESULTS We found no significant difference between the two groups for any of our parameters. Significant improvements were noted for pain and swelling within either group at various intervals. The MDP 99mTc scan showed increased tracer uptake for the representing patient of either group. CONCLUSIONS HA+βTCP is more inexpensive than DFDB and more readily available and has no host incompatibility or infection potential, resulting in similar clinical postoperative states as DFDB when either is used with PRF.

Abstract
Platelet- and fibrin-rich orthobiologic products, such as autologous platelet concentrates, have been extensively studied and appreciated for their beneficial effects on multiple conditions. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and its derivatives, including platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), have demonstrated encouraging outcomes in clinical and laboratory settings, particularly in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoarthritis (OA). Although PRP and PRF have distinct characteristics, they share similar properties. The relative abundance of platelets, peripheral blood cells, and molecular components in these orthobiologic products stimulates numerous biological pathways. These include inflammatory modulation, augmented neovascularization, and the delivery of pro-anabolic stimuli that regulate cell recruitment, proliferation, and differentiation. Furthermore, the fibrinolytic system, which is sometimes overlooked, plays a crucial role in musculoskeletal regenerative medicine by regulating proteolytic activity and promoting the recruitment of inflammatory cells and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in areas of tissue regeneration, such as bone, cartilage, and muscle. PRP acts as a potent signaling agent; however, it diffuses easily, while the fibrin from PRF offers a durable scaffolding effect that promotes cell activity. The combination of fibrin with hyaluronic acid (HA), another well-studied orthobiologic product, has been shown to improve its scaffolding properties, leading to more robust fibrin polymerization. This supports cell survival, attachment, migration, and proliferation. Therefore, the administration of the "power mix" containing HA and autologous PRP + PRF may prove to be a safe and cost-effective approach in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The management of the upper impacted canines includes a range of options, including orthodontic options in their various forms, up to extraction and replacing the tooth with a dental implant. Auto tooth graft (ATG) has achieved good clinical efficacy and was recently used as a grafting material for its bone induction and conduction properties. The use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is highly effective in regenerative dentistry, and its use with bone grafts has improved tissue healing. This case report shows for the first time managing impacted canine with extraction and converting it into ATG and mixing it with injectable PRF to obtain sticky bone ATG and insertion of an immediate implant in a female patient who complains about a missing upper left canine. The results show the good bone formation and satisfactory clinical aspects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The primary aim was to evaluate the success of the defect closure (tight or open) of oroantral communications (OAC) after treatment with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) clots or a buccal advancement flap (BAF). Secondary outcome measurements were the evaluation of the wound healing, the displacement of the mucogingival border (MGB), and the pain level. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty eligible patients with an OAC defect larger than 3 mm were randomly assigned to either PRF (test group, n = 25) or BAF (control group, n = 25) for defect closure. In a prospective follow-up program of 21 days, the defect closure healing process, the wound healing course using Landry's wound healing index (score: 0-5), the displacement of the MGB, and the postoperative pain score were evaluated. RESULTS Five patients in each group were lost to follow-up resulting in 40 patients (20 in each group) for continuous evaluation. On postoperative day 21 (study endpoint), no difference regarding success rate (defined as closure of OAC) was noticed between the test (90%; 18/20) and control group (90%; 18/20). A univariate analysis showed significant differences for age and defect size/height for the use of PRF between successful-tight and open-failed defect healing. At the final evaluation, a significantly (p = 0.005) better wound healing score, a lower displacement of the MGB as well as lower pain-score were seen for the use of PRF. CONCLUSIONS Based on the findings of the current study, the use of platelet-rich fibrin represents a reliable and successful method for closure of oroantral communications. The use of PRF clots for defect filling is associated with lowered pain levels and less displacement of the mucogingival border. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The defect size should be taken into account when choosing the number and size of PRF plugs.

Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:661. [PMID: 37370592 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10060661] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and bone marrow mononuclear cells are potential scaffolds and cell sources for osteochondral regeneration. The main aim of this paper is to examine the effects of PRF scaffolds and autologous uncultured bone marrow mononuclear cells on osteochondral regeneration in rabbit knees. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three different types of PRF scaffolds were generated from peripheral blood (Ch-PRF and L-PRF) and bone marrow combined with uncultured bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMM-PRF). The histological characteristics of these scaffolds were assessed via hematoxylin-eosin staining, PicroSirius red staining, and immunohistochemical staining. Osteochondral defects with a diameter of 3 mm and depth of 3 mm were created on the trochlear groove of the rabbit's femur. Different PRF scaffolds were then applied to treat the defects. A group of rabbits with induced osteochondral defects that were not treated with any scaffold was used as a control. Osteochondral tissue regeneration was assessed after 2, 4, and 6 weeks by macroscopy (using the Internal Cartilage Repair Society score, X-ray) and microscopy (hematoxylin-eosin stain, safranin O stain, toluidine stain, and Wakitani histological scale, immunohistochemistry), in addition to gene expression analysis of osteochondral markers. RESULTS Ch-PRF had a heterogeneous fibrin network structure and cellular population; L-PRF and BMM-PRF had a homogeneous structure with a uniform distribution of the fibrin network. Ch-PRF and L-PRF contained a population of CD45-positive leukocytes embedded in the fibrin network, while mononuclear cells in the BMM-PRF scaffold were positive for the pluripotent stem cell-specific antibody Oct-4. In comparison to the untreated group, the rabbits that were given the autologous graft displayed significantly improved healing of the articular cartilage tissue and of the subchondral bone. Regeneration was gradually observed after 2, 4, and 6 weeks of PRF scaffold treatment, which was particularly evident in the BMM-PRF group. CONCLUSIONS The combination of biomaterials with autologous platelet-rich fibrin and uncultured bone marrow mononuclear cells promoted osteochondral regeneration in a rabbit model more than platelet-rich fibrin material alone. Our results indicate that autologous platelet-rich fibrin scaffolds combined with uncultured bone marrow mononuclear cells applied in healing osteochondral lesions may represent a suitable treatment in addition to stem cell and biomaterial therapy.

A Meta-Analysis. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2023; 81:602-621. [PMID: 36736375 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2023.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Multiple preparation protocols for platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are in use today, and clinical results are often heterogeneous. This study analyzes the impact of the chosen PRF preparation protocol on 1) wound healing and 2) alveolar ridge preservation. METHODS For this systematic review and meta-analysis, eligible studies were identified in PubMed and Cochrane databases. Included were randomized controlled and controlled clinical trials with healthy patients treated with PRF after atraumatic tooth extraction compared to untreated socket(s), reporting at least one of the following outcome variables: pain, swelling, soft tissue healing, alveolar osteitis risk, horizontal and vertical bone loss, socket fill, and new bone formation. Main predictor variable was relative centrifugal force (RCF) comparing high RCF (high PRF), intermediate RCF (standard [S-PRF]), low RCF (advanced PRF), and various RCF settings (concentrated growth factor preparation [CGF]). The type of centrifugation tubes (silica-coated plastic and glass) was a secondary predictor. Weighted or standardized mean differences, risk ratio and corresponding 95% confidence intervals were calculated. RESULTS Forty studies published between 2012 and 2022 were selected. The pooled effects of all outcomes were significant against untreated sockets. Within the subgroups high PRF or advanced PRF had the lowest efficacy for many outcome parameters. Pain reduction (in visual analog scale units) was highest for S-PRF (-1.18 [-1.48, -0.88], P < .00001) and CGF (-1.03 [-1.16, -0.90], P < .001). The risk ratio of alveolar osteitis (0.09 [0.01, 0.69], P < .02) and soft tissue healing (standardized mean difference = 2.55 [2.06, 3.03], P < .001) were best for CGF. No subgroup differences were found for bone-related outcomes. No meaningful analysis of the tube material effect was possible. CONCLUSION This study confirms that PRF is associated with reduced postoperative complications but indicates that preparation protocol influences clinical outcomes. S-PRF and CGF protocols appear to be superior for several outcome parameters.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to evaluate the effect of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) as a potential catalyst for the acceleration of palatal wound healing after subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvesting. MATERIALS AND METHODS Referred patients to the Department of Periodontology with the complication of the gingival recession were examined. Thirty participants were chosen for root coverage surgeries with SCTGs, and randomly distributed into two groups; the study group (n = 15) with i-PRF was applied, and the control group (n = 15) without i-PRF. The wound healing index was evaluated on the 7th, 14th, and 30th days of the treatment. Palatal tissue thickness was measured before the treatment and at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd months after the treatment. RESULTS The study group improved significantly the early healing over the control group on days 7 and 14 (p < 0.01), whereas no difference in the first month (p > 0.05) between the groups. Moreover, the study group showed higher tissue thickness mean in the first and second month (p < 0.01), but in the third month, there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) between both groups. CONCLUSION The i-PRF has favorable effects on the healing process by enhancing wound healing and increasing the tissue thickness in the palate after SCTG harvesting. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE For clinicians, it is important to know that we can use biological materials to accelerate healing in general, such as i-PRF. In this study, we used it in the palate, which may accelerate the healing so that we can repeatedly use the same area of the patient's palate for more than one occasion faster.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Metformin (MF) with Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) over PRF alone in the treatment of periodontal osseous defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS An extensive electronic search for articles published up to September 2021 was conducted on 'Embase', 'PubMed' and other library databases accompanied with manual searching. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), comparing MF plus PRF Vs PRF alone in periodontal osseous defects were identified in which periodontal pocket depth (PPD), Clinical attachment level (CAL) and Intrabony defect depth (IBD Depth) were the outcome measures. RESULTS Four studies compared MF plus PRF vs .PRF alone in periodontal osseous defects. Meta-analysis was carried out for PPD reduction, CAL gain and IBD Depth changes. A standardized mean difference (SMD) of 1.86 for PPD reduction, 1.95 for CAL gain and 1.31 for IBD Depth reduction in all the studies was observed and the findings were statistically significant favouring test group. CONCLUSION The systematic review indicates supplemental benefits of combination therapy of MF + PRF over monotherapy in resolving periodontal osseous defects. In our quest to achieve maximum regeneration in periodontal osseous defects, combination therapies such as MF + PRF have reported to be better treatment choices over other modalities.

Abstract
Tissue engineering focuses on wound healing and tissue regeneration. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a fibrin matrix containing cytokines, growth factors and cells that are gradually released into the wound over time. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of PRF membranes on wound repair and microbial control in infected wounds. Skin wounds were performed on the dorsum of rats using a 6 mm diameter metal punch. The defects were randomly assigned into four groups (n = 12/each) accordingly to the treatment: G1, noninfected wound filled only with clot; G2, noninfected wound with PRF; G3, infected wound (S. aureus) without PRF; G4, infected wound (S. aureus) with PRF. After 7 and 14 days, macroscopic and histological analyses of the wounds were performed. Furthermore, the quantification of β-defensin in PRF was measured by ELISA. At 14 days, the groups with PRF (G2 and G4) had wound sizes significantly smaller than the original defects (6 mm) (p < 0.05) and significantly smaller than those not treated with PRF, in both the infected and noninfected groups (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the groups with infected wounds (G3 and G4) demonstrated a significantly lower inflammation score in the PRF group than in the noninfected groups (p < 0.05). In vitro analysis of β-defensin was performed in all PRF membrane groups, and the median value was 1.444 pg/mL. PRF in the wounds of both control and infected rats played an important role in the modulation of tissue healing, most notably in infected sites.

Abstract
Introduction. Alveolar ostitis (AO) is the dissolution of blood clot due to enhanced local fibrinolysis and is caused by trauma to the jaw (direct) or because of bacterial involvement (indirect), which result in the activation of plasminogen pathway. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a platelet concentrate that comprises numerous autologous growth factors, and immune cells hence has the potential to expedite the healing process. The objective of the study was to determine the efficacy of PRF in the surgically extracted third molar in the context of its potential progress to AO. Materials and Methods. A total of 180 patients of 18–65 years with unilateral painful mandibular third molars due to caries, failed endodontics treatment, and pericoronitis were included in the study. Exclusion criteria were patients who were medically compromised, smokers, alcoholic, poor oral hygiene, third molar having associated periapical pathology, and receiving antibiotic regime in the last 2 weeks. Before starting surgical procedure, patients were randomly divided into two groups using lottery method. Group I received PRF in the extraction socket, while in Group II, the extraction site was left for normal healing as practiced in a standard procedure. Pain was assessed in terms of pain score, and it was recorded on a 10 mm visual analog scale on the first and third postoperative days. Results. Mean age of the patients was 41.35 ± 9.87 years. The mean age in Group I was 42.84 ± 10.52 years, and in Group II, it was 40.54 ± 9.52 years. Out of 180 patients, 90 (50.0%) were male and 90 (50.0%) were female, with a male-to-female ratio of 1 : 1. Frequency of AO following mandibular third molar surgery in Group I receiving PRF was 2.22% and in non-PRF group 12.22% (p-value = 0.010). Conclusion. The incidence of AO following mandibular third molar surgery was lower when PRF was used.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Gingival phenotype is decisive in periodontal health, aesthetics, and function and is a predictor of treatment outcomes. Injectable platelet-rich fibrin is a recently proposed method of gingival augmentation due to its enhanced regenerative potential. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of injectable platelet-rich fibrin for gingival phenotype modification. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this split-mouth study, 30 healthy volunteers with thin gingival biotypes in either maxillary or mandibular incisors were included. iPRF was prepared using 64 g relative centrifugal force for 3 min. i-PRF was injected into the attached gingiva using a 27-gauge disposable needle in relation to the test sites (n = 360), and contralateral sites were kept as control. Re-evaluation was done at the end of 3 and 6 months. Post-operative complications and patient-reported experience measures were also recorded. Statistical analysis was done using paired t-test and analysis of covariance. RESULTS Statistically significant increase in gingival thickness was found in the test group at the individual site and tooth level. An overall increase in gingival thickness of 26.56% after 3 months and 29% after 6 months compared to baseline was noticed in the test group. No significant difference was found in the width of keratinized gingiva in any of the comparisons. CONCLUSION The non-surgical application of i-PRF is promising for enhancing gingival thickness. Future well-controlled studies with long-term follow-up in different patient populations can provide more evidence. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Gingival phenotype modification is a useful therapy to prevent the occurrence of gingival recession in patients with thin phenotypes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the clinical and radiographic effectiveness of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) seeded onto L-PRF and L-PRF alone in the extraction socket of mandibular third molars. METHODS This study analyzed 13 patients who required surgical removal of impacted bilateral mandibular third molars. The main outcome measures were the probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment levels (CAL) that were recorded for the adjacent second molars (LM2) at the baseline and 6 months after surgery. The secondary outcomes were radiographic vertical bone loss (VD) and relative bone density (rBD) distal to the LM2. RESULTS Twenty-six LM2s were evaluated. After 6 months, the L-PRF and L-PRF + DPSC groups showed a significant reduction in PPD (1.65 ± 1.01 mm and 1.54 ± 0.78 mm) and CAL (2.23 ± 1.45 mm and 2.12 ± 0.74 mm), respectively. There was no difference between the groups for any periodontal parameters. No significant differences were found between the groups regarding the VD or rBD at the sixth month. CONCLUSIONS This study found that there was a significant improvement regarding the PPD, CAL, and VD measurements with the application of L-PRF, both alone and with the addition of DPSC, at the extraction socket. DPSC did not significantly contribute to the results compared to L-PRF therapy alone. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered on 23 December 2020 on ClinicalTrials.gov under the number NCT04641533.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare different materials' effects on alveolar ridge preservation of postextraction sockets in anterior maxilla. MATERIALS AND METHOD In this prospective, single center, randomized, controlled clinical trial, healthy patients who needed one single anterior maxillary tooth extraction (including bicuspids) were selected. After a minimally traumatic extraction without complications, 44 patients were randomly allocated into 4 groups: 1) natural socket healing (blood clot), 2) xenograft and gingival free graft, 3) dense polytetrafluoroethylene membrane, and 4) platelet rich fibrin plugs. Alveolar ridge height and width loss were evaluated in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and in dental casts at 3 moments: 1) preoperative (T1), 2) 7 days postoperative (T2), and 3) 120 days postoperative (T3). Height and width alveolar ridge loss detected in CBCT and in dental casts were compared among the groups (two-way analysis of variance [ANOVA]; P < .05). RESULTS Forty patients (24 women and 16 men) ranging from 25 to 70 years old (mean of 42 years old) participated in this study. Group 2 showed the least alveolar ridge height loss results in CBCT (9.8 ± 1.9% at T3) and dental cast analysis (1.0 ± 0.2 mm). Groups 2 (12.7 ± 4.7% at T3) and 3 (15.4 ± 2.7% at T3) showed the least alveolar ridge width loss measured in CBCT compared with groups 1 and 4, but the difference between groups 2 and 3 were not statistically significant (P = .968). Group 3 (0.9 ± 0.2 mm) and group 2 (1.0 ± 0.2 mm) showed the least width loss compared with groups 1 and 4 in dental cast analysis. Again, the difference between groups 3 and 2 was not statistically significant (P = 1.000). CONCLUSION In postextraction sockets of the anterior maxilla and bicuspid region, group 2 (xenogenous bone graft with free gingival graft) and group 3 (dense polytetrafluoroethylene) obtained the best results in alveolar preservation, with group 2 being more indicated when the vertical alveolar ridge preservation is mandatory.

Saudi Dent J 2023; 35:244-250. [PMID: 37091276 PMCID: PMC10114591 DOI: 10.1016/j.sdentj.2023.01.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim The aim was to compare the effect in improvement of periodontal pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) between application of 4MATRIX and 4 MATRIX combined with PRF in advanced periodontal disease during follow-up of 6, 12 and 18 months. Methods Thirty patients of both genders aged 25-50 years were included. The patients were clinically and radiologically diagnosed with generalized advanced chronic periodontitis with the presence of periodontal pockets with a depth of ≥ 5 mm bilaterally in the upper jaw. Both sides were treated with a flap intervention in all patients. On one side a bone substitute 4MATRIX was applied, and the other side was treated with an application 4MATRIX and PRF. The clinical assessment and measurements were performed in four stages, immediately before the intervention, and then 6, 12 and 18 months after the intervention. PPD and CAL were determined in all four timepoints. Results PPD was the highest at zero time before the surgery for both groups and was 5.56 ± 0.28 mm. In the postoperative follow-up period, the PPD value decreased gradually with the lowest average value of 5.10 ± 0.18 mm after 18 months in Group I and 4.67 ± 0.13 mm in Group II (p < 0.001, respectively). Moreover, comparing the values of PPD at 6, 12 and 18 months after the surgery, a significant difference was found between the patients from the 4MATRIX vs 4MATRIX + PRF (p < 0.001 respectively). The postoperative follow-up period showed a decrease in CAL value with the lowest value after 18 months. A significant difference in CAL was found between the four measurement times (p < 0.001, respectively). The average level of CAL was the highest before surgical treatment in both groups. The intergroup analysis of CAL after 18 months in group I (4MATRIX) was 5.27 ± 0.17 mm and in group II 4.10 ± 0.14 mm (p < 0.001). Conclusion Treatment of adult patients with advanced chronic periodontitis with periodontal pockets of ≥ 5 mm bilaterally in the upper jaw using 4MATRIX and 4MATRIX + PRF showed improvement of PPD and lower CAL loss after 18 months of the treatment. In the group treated with 4MATRIX + PRF patients showed the highest improvement in PPD and CAL loss. The analysis of treatment with 4MATRIX and 4MATRIX + PRF showed the lowest values after 18 months of the treatment.

In vitro and in vivo assessment of decellularized platelet-rich fibrin-loaded strontium doped porous magnesium phosphate scaffolds in bone regeneration. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 138:105587.

Abstract
The present work reports the effect of decellularized platelet-rich fibrin (dPRF) loaded strontium (Sr) doped porous magnesium phosphate (MgP) bioceramics on biocompatibility, biodegradability, and bone regeneration. Sustained release of growth factors from dPRF is a major objective here, which conformed to the availability of dPRF on the scaffold surface even after 7 days of in vitro degradation. dPRF-incorporated MgP scaffolds were implanted in the rabbit femoral bone defect and bone rejuvenation was confirmed by radiological examination, histological examination, fluorochrome labeling study, and micro-CT. μ-CT examination of the regained bone samples exhibited that invasion of mature bone in the pores of the MgP2Sr-dPRF sample was higher than the MgP2Sr which indicated better bone maturation capability of this composition. Quantifiable assessment using oxytetracycline labeling showed 73.55 ± 1.12% new osseous tissue regeneration for MgP2Sr-dPRF samples in contrast to 65.47 ± 1.16% for pure MgP2Sr samples, after 3 months of implantation. Histological analysis depicted the presence of abundant osteoblastic and osteoclastic cells in dPRF-loaded Sr-doped MgP samples as compared to other samples. Radiological studies also mimicked similar results in the MgP2Sr-dPRF group with intact periosteal lining and significant bridging callus formation. The present results indicated that dPRF-loaded Sr-doped magnesium phosphate bioceramics have good biocompatibility, bone-forming ability, and suitable biodegradability in bone regeneration.

Effectiveness of using platelet-rich fibrin to increase keratinized tissue around the tooth in the modified apical reposition flap method: A split-mouth, randomized controlled trial. Clin Exp Dent Res 2023; 9:36-44. [PMID: 36424485 PMCID: PMC9932240 DOI: 10.1002/cre2.693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES One of the simplest methods to increase keratinized gingiva is the modified apically repositioned flap (MARF) technique. In this method, the periosteum remains exposed, which may lead to postoperative pain and discomfort. In the presence of bone dehiscence, bone resorption and gingival recession may occur. Hence, this study aims to use platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to promote wound healing in the MARF technique and overcome its disadvantages. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this randomized controlled trial study, 10 patients (six males and four females with a mean age of 33.9 ± 11.13) with less than 2 mm of attached gingiva bilaterally were treated by the MARF + PRF membrane (test group), on the one hand, whereas, on the other hand, it was treated only by MARF (control group). Clinical parameters of keratinized gingiva include thickness, width, and vestibule depth before and 8 weeks after the intervention were measured. RESULTS The attached gingival width increased significantly in both groups (1.7 mm in the MARF and 2.3 mm in the PRF) and this was greater in the PRF group (p < .05). Gingival thickness in the PRF method was significantly higher than in the control group (p < .05). Probe depth, vestibular depth, and postoperative pain were not different in both groups. Wound shrinkage in the MARF group (51%) was significantly higher than in the PRF group (30%) (p < .05). CONCLUSION Using PRF with the MARF method significantly increased the width and thickness of the gingiva and reduced shrinkage compared to MARF only. Postoperative pain and vestibular depth changes were similar in both groups.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of platelet-rich fibrin application on implant stability. Study design Five databases, namely, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Wiley, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure, were searched for reports published up to November 20, 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCT), including parallel RCTs and split-mouth RCTs, with at least 10 patients/sites were considered for inclusion. Results After screening based on the inclusion criteria, ten RCTs were included. Low heterogeneity was observed in study characteristics, outcome variables, and estimation scales (I2 = 27.2%, P = 0.19). The qualitative and meta-analysis results showed that PRF increased the effect of implant stabilizers after implant surgery. Conclusions The results of the present systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that PRF can increase implant stability after implant surgery. PRF may also have a role in accelerating bone healing and tends to promote new bone formation at the implant site.

Abstract
Background This study aims to prove the healing results (regeneration) in cartilage defects using a combination treatment of microfractures and transplantation synovium-platelet rich fibrin (S-PRF). Methods A cartilage defect was made in the trochlear groove of the knee of adult New Zealand white rabbits, and was classified into three treatment groups. The group 1 was cartilage defect without treatment, 2 with microfracture treatment, and 3 with microfracture covered with a synovium-platelet rich fibrin (S-PRF) membrane. Twelve weeks after the intervention, the animals were macroscopically and histologically examined, and evaluated by the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS). Additionally, the expression of aggrecan and type 2 collagen was examined by real-time-PCR. Results The ICSR scores for macroscopic were significantly higher in the microfracture and S-PRF transplant group than in the other groups. Also, the ICSR scores for histology were significantly higher in this group. The expression of aggrecan and type 2 collagen was higher in the group that received complete treatment. Conclusions Microfractures and transplantation of synovium-platelet rich fibrin (S-PRF) can regenerate knee cartilage defects which have been shown to increase the expression of mRNA aggrecan and mRNA type 2 collagen resulting in excellent repair.

Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASC) transplant to recover the optimal tissue structure/function relationship is a promising strategy to regenerate tissue lesions. Because filling local tissue defects by injection alone is often challenging, designing adequate cell carriers with suitable characteristics is critical for in situ ASC delivery. The aim of this study was to optimize the generation phase of a platelet-lysate-based fibrin hydrogel (PLFH) as a proper carrier for in situ ASC implantation and (1) to investigate in vitro PLFH biomechanical properties, cell viability, proliferation and migration sustainability, and (2) to comprehensively assess the local in vivo PLFH/ASC safety profile (local tolerance, ASC fate, biodistribution and toxicity). We first defined the experimental conditions to enhance physicochemical properties and microscopic features of PLFH as an adequate ASC vehicle. When ASC were mixed with PLFH, in vitro assays exhibited hydrogel supporting cell migration, viability and proliferation. In vivo local subcutaneous and subgingival PLFH/ASC administration in nude mice allowed us to generate biosafety data, including biodegradability, tolerance, ASC fate and engraftment, and the absence of biodistribution and toxicity to non-target tissues. Our data strongly suggest that this novel combined ATMP for in situ administration is safe with an efficient local ASC engraftment, supporting the further development for human clinical cell therapy.

Controlled release of protein from gelatin/chitosan hydrogel containing platelet-rich fibrin encapsulated in chitosan nanoparticles for accelerated wound healing in an animal model. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 225:588-604.

Abstract
The physiological healing process is disrupted in many cases using the current wound healing procedures, resulting in delayed wound healing. Hydrogel wound dressings provide a moist environment to enhance granulation tissue and epithelium formation in the wound area. However, exudate accumulation, bacterial proliferation, and reduced levels of growth factors are difficulties of hydrogel dressings. Here, we loaded platelet-rich fibrin-chitosan (CH-PRF) nanoparticles into the gelatin-chitosan hydrogel (Gel-CH/CH-PRF) by solvent mixing method. Our goal was to evaluate the characteristics of hydrogel dressings, sustained release of proteins from the hydrogel dressing containing PRF, and reduction in the risk of infection by the bacteria in the wound area. The Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel showed excellent swelling behavior, good porosity, proper specific surface area, high absorption of wound exudates, and proper vapor permeability rate (2023 g/m 2.day), which provided requisite moisture without dehydration around the wound area. Thermal behavior and the protein release from the hydrogels were investigated using simultaneous thermal analysis and the Bradford test, respectively. Most importantly, an excellent ability to control the release of proteins from the hydrogel dressings was observed. The high antimicrobial activity of hydrogel was confirmed using Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Due to the presence of chitosan in the hydrogels, the lowest scavenging capacity-50 value (5.82 μgmL-1) and the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity (83 %) at a concentration 25 μgmL-1 for Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel were observed. Also, the hydrogels revealed excellent cell viability and proliferation. The wound healing process was studied using an in vivo model of the full-thickness wound. The wound closure was significantly higher on Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel compared to the control group, indicating the highest epidermis thickness, and enhancing the formation of new granulation tissue. Our findings demonstrated that Gel-CH/CH-PRF hydrogel can provide an ideal wound dressing for accelerated wound healing.

Abstract
Objectives:
This study aimed to determine the efficacy of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) injection on orthodontic pain perception during the 1st week of the alignment and leveling process.
Material and Methods:
The study sample included 18 patients (11 females and 7 males). The patients were randomly divided into two groups, the PRF group (9 patients) and the control group (9 patients). The mean age of the sample members was 21.9 ± 2.5 and 20.8 ± 2.4 in the control and the PRF group, respectively. Conventional brackets were applied for both groups. PRF was injected into the six upper front teeth at a rate of 0.6 mm for each point before starting the primary wire insertion process. The pain parameters of each patient were evaluated for both groups during the 1st week of the alignment and leveling process by application of the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at the durations of (2 h, 6 h, 1 day, 2 days, and 7 days) and all patients were followed up until the end of the alignment and leveling process.
Results:
PRF injection can reduce pain perception in orthodontic patients, overall (P < 0.05), with an effect size of approx. 53 ± 0.13%. The biggest effect was observed 2 h after exposure (P < 0.1) which showed a 50% reduction in pain in the PRF group. No significant effects were observed at later times (P > 0.1).
Conclusion:
The present study concludes that PRF injection can be an effective alternative for decreasing pain perception levels; however, its efficacy needs to be leveraged immediately after the injection of PRF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the effects of four different commonly used wound dressings in improving patient reported outcomes (PROMS) after free epithelialized mucosal grafts (FEGs) harvesting. METHODS Following 72 FEGs harvesting from 72 patients, patients were assigned into four groups. CONTROL collagen plug + sutures (CPS); test: collagen plug with cyano-acrylate (CPC), platelet rich fibrin (PRF) + sutures, or palatal stent only (PS). Patients were observed for 14 days, with evaluation of pain level utilizing the visual analog scale, number of analgesics consumed, need for additional analgesics, amount of swelling, amount of bleeding, activity tolerance, and willingness for retreatment. RESULTS Compared to the control group all test groups indicated significant lower pain perception (P < 0.0001), lower analgesic consumption (P < 0.0001), and higher willingness for retreatment (P < 0.0001), while no statistically significant differences among test groups were observed. There were no statistically significant differences in amount of day-by-day swelling, bleeding, and activity tolerance among four groups. Compared to other groups, the PS had the lowest overall pain scores (over the 14-day period). Palatal thickness, graft length, graft width, and graft thickness did not appear to affect patient morbidity (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS All interventions significantly decreased pain perception compared to a hemostatic collagen sponge alone over the palatal donor site after FEG surgery. In the first few days after surgery, the use of a palatal stent seemed to be associated with less overall pain, pain pills consumed, and higher willingness of doing the same procedure again.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic lower limb ulcers (CLLU) are those injuries that persist for more than six weeks despite adequate care. They are relatively common; it is estimated that 10/1,000 people will develop CLLU in their lifetime. Diabetic ulcer, because of its unique pathophysiology (association between neuropathy, microangiopathy, and immune deficiency), is considered one of the most complex and difficult etiologies of CLLU for treatment. This treatment is complex, costly, and sometimes frustrating, as it is often ineffective, which worsens the quality of life of patients and makes its treatment a challenge. OBJECTIVE To describe a new method for treating diabetic CLLU and the initial results of using a new autologous tissue regeneration matrix. METHOD This is a pilot, prospective, an interventional study that used a novel protocol of autologous tissue regeneration matrix for the treatment of diabetic CLLU. RESULTS Three male cases with a mean age of 54 years were included. A total of six Giant Pro PRF Membrane (GMPro) were used varying their application between one to three sessions during treatment. A total of 11 liquid phase infiltrations were performed varying their application between three and four sessions. The patients were evaluated weekly and a reduction in the wound area and scar retraction was observed during the period studied. CONCLUSION The new tissue regeneration matrix described is an effective and low-cost method for the treatment of chronic diabetic ulcers.

Abstract
Traumatic dental injuries usually involve the dentoalveolar region, and they readily affect the teeth and their surrounding soft and hard tissues. The common sequelae of traumatic dental injuries lead to pulpal necrosis and apical periodontitis along with cystic changes. The current case report describes the surgical management of a radicular cyst in the periapical region of maxillary incisors and highlights the efficacy of natural platelet concentrate [platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)] used for postoperative healing. A 38-year-old male patient presented to the department with pain and mild swelling in the upper front tooth region. On radiographic examination, a radiolucent periapical lesion was evident in relation to the right maxillary central and lateral incisor. In the maxillary anterior region, root canal therapy was performed, followed by periapical surgery and retrograde filling with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and PRF was placed in the surgical site to initiate the healing at a faster rate. The patient was recalled for follow-ups after 12 weeks, 24 weeks, and 36 weeks; he was found to be asymptomatic, and significant periapical healing was observed in the radiograph with almost adequate bone formation.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the current study was to compare the esthetic results for subjects with Miller Class I and II gingival recession (GR) abnormalities using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membrane with coronal advanced flaps (CAFs) with and without vertical releasing incisions (VRIs; the envelope-type flap and the flap with VRIs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seven defects from each of the test and control groups made up of fourteen defects total. In the test group, PRF + CAF was performed without VRI, while in the control group, VRI was used. Gain in root coverage was the main result, with secondary results including papillary bleeding index (PBI), plaque index (PI), relative gingival margin level, relative attachment level, probing pocket depth, recession depth, width of keratinized gingiva (WKG), and gingival thickness. After 3 months of therapy, a clinical evaluation was conducted. RESULTS No significant difference was observed between the two groups in terms of recession reduction (2.08 ± 0.5 vs 1.91 ± 0.66 mm), clinical attachment level (CAL) gain (2.08 ± 0.5 vs 1.91 ± 0.66 mm), and increase in WKG (2.66 ± 0.88 vs 2.58 ± 0.51 mm) for test and control groups, respectively. CONCLUSION For the treatment of GR, both groups are efficient. However, the CAF + PRF without VRI group showed higher patient compliance and lower postoperative morbidity. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The PRF membrane with CAF with or without VRI provide effective treatment option for GR. CAF + PRF without VRI is easy to perform and has less postoperative complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been used in several fields of dentistry to improve tissue healing. However, PRF from glass tubes results in a limited number of small membranes, increasing clinical difficulty and work time. The aim of this study was to evaluate cell and platelet amounts and biomechanical strength of PRF-giant membranes produced from plastic tubes without additives. MATERIAL AND METHODS The investigators designed an ex vivo study, to compare 3 different centrifugation protocols for obtaining PRF: 700 × g/12 minutes (leukocyte and PRF [L-PRF]), 350 × g/14 minutes (GM350), and 60-700 × g more than 15 minutes total (progressive PRF [PRO-PRF]). We collected blood samples from 5 volunteers aged 25-54 years, over 3 different time periods (triplicate and paired study). From each venipuncture, 4 mL of blood was collected in vacutainers with ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and approximately 104 mL in 12 plastic tubes without additives, which were separated into 3 groups, as per the centrifugation protocols (n = 5): L-PRF, GM350, and PRO-PRF. The PRF from the tubes of the same protocol was aspirated and 9 mL were placed in polylactic acid (PLA) forms and 3 mL were placed in a glass receptacle. The membranes from PLA forms were tested for tensile strength and the membranes from glass receptacles were evaluated by histomorphometry, while platelets and leukocytes were counted for those in tubes with EDTA. Statistical analyses were performed using Shapiro-Wilk normality test and then a one-way repeated measures analysis followed by Tukey multiple comparisons test (α < 0.05). RESULTS In tensile analyses, PRO-PRF (0.85 ± 0.23 N) showed a significantly higher maximum breaking strength than L-PRF (0.61 ± 0.26 N, P = .01) and GM350 (0.58 ± 0.23 N, P < .01). The histomorphometry revealed no significant statistical difference in cell counts between the groups (P = .52). Furthermore, there was no significant difference between the leukocyte (P = .25) and platelet counts (P = .59) in whole blood between the groups. CONCLUSION The progressive protocol (PRO-PRF) enabled the production of PRF giant membranes with greater tensile strength and adequate cell distribution. Moreover, it allows biomaterial incorporation during production and enables clinical control of membrane thickness and size as per the surgical procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effectiveness of platelet concentrates in promoting root development of necrotic immature permanent teeth is unclear. The present study evaluated whether the platelet concentrate protocol was superior to the traditional blood clot protocol in regeneration therapy. METHODS We searched Electronic databases, such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials and EMBASE. Randomized controlled trial studies, cohort studies, case-control studies and cross-sectional studies were included, in which platelet-rich concentrates were tested for periapical healing and root development, with the blood clot treatment protocol as the control group. Clinical and radiographic outcomes were considered. Selected articles were assessed for risk of bias. Pooled risk ratios (risk ratio, RR) were calculated for clinical success, responses to cold and electric pulp tests, periapical lesions, apex closure, root lengthening, and thickening of the dentin walls. Subgroup meta-analysis were conducted according to the type of platelet concentrate used. RESULTS Of the 1272 screened studies, 13 randomized controlled studies, 2 case-control studies and 1 cohort study were selected, in which 465 immature necrotic permanent teeth, particularly incisors and premolars, were treated. Of these 465 teeth, 457 (98.2%) in both the control and experimental groups remained clinically asymptomatic for the entire study duration, whereas eight (1.8%) showed signs and symptoms of failure, including spontaneous pain, sensitivity to percussion or reinfection. Compared with control teeth, teeth treated with PRP achieved better apical healing than BC group (RR 1.13, 95% CI 1.01-1.26, P = 0.03), and teeth treated with platelet concentrates showed improved apical closure (RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.86-1.25, P = 0.69), root lengthening (RR 1.01, 95% CI 0.74-1.39, P = 0.93), and thickening of the dentin walls (RR 1.35, 95% CI 0.95-1.93, P = 0.09), although these differences were not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Platelet concentrates can be used as successful scaffolds for regenerative endodontic treatment of necrotic immature permanent teeth, and PRP as a scaffold may achieve better periapical healing of teeth with periapical inflammation, although they did not differ significantly from conventional blood clot scaffolds in development of the root.

Abstract
The avulsion of the impacted lower third molar is one of the most common procedures in oral surgery. Even though it is characterized by possible complications due to the lesion of lingual and inferior alveolar nerves, the intra-oral surgical approach represents the first-choice strategy when planning surgery. However, in case of ectopic tooth in the mandibular basal bone, it is appropriate to consider an extra-oral transcutaneous surgical approach. The ectopia of the inferior wisdom tooth represents a very rare clinical condition and sometimes it is even unknown by patients and dentists: further evidence of this fact is represented by the paucity of paper related to the topic that can be found in the international scientific literature. The experience of the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of San Gerardo Hospital in Monza (Italy) in management and treatment of ectopic impacted lower third molar is exposed through the presentation of three cases of ectopic third molar. Two out of three patients, aware of the risks related to the surgical procedure, refused the treatment proposed. One patient underwent surgical avulsion of the wisdom tooth through extra-oral transcervical approach. No early or late complications have been observed. Extra-oral surgical approach for ectopic lower third molar should be considered for selected cases. Given the rarity of the clinical condition and the procedure-related risks, accurate preoperative information has to be provided to the patient by physician and the procedure should only be performed by expert and competent surgeons.

Abstract
The use of membrane barriers and bone grafting materials in endodontic surgery promotes healing by regeneration rather than repair by scar tissue. Due to its valuable regenerative and therapeutic properties, the human amniotic membrane can support ideal periapical rehabilitation and promote better healing after surgery. The current trial aimed to evaluate the amniotic membrane's healing potential and compare it with platelet-rich fibrin using color doppler sonography. The current study is a randomized, double-blinded, parallel-group, single-center study. Thirty-four systematically healthy individuals requiring endodontic surgery who fulfilled all inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected and randomly placed in two groups. Surgical curettage of the bony lesion was performed and filled with hydroxyapatite graft. Amniotic membrane (Group 1) and platelet-rich fibrin (Group 2) were placed over the bony crypt, and the flap was sutured back. The lesion's surface area and vascularity were the parameters assessed with ultrasound and color doppler. and observations: The groups found a significant difference in mean vascularity at 1 month and mean vascularity change from baseline to 1 month (p < 0.05). Mean surface area had no statistically significant difference between the groups. However, in terms of the percentage change in surface area, a significant difference was found from baseline to 6 months (p < 0.05). Amniotic membrane was a significantly better promoter of angiogenesis than platelet-rich fibrin in the current trial. The osteogenic potential of both materials was similar. However, the clinical application, availability, and cost-effectiveness of amniotic membrane support it as a promising therapeutic alternative in clinical translation. Further large-scale trials and histologic studies are warranted.

Abstract
Leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) has been suggested for gap management for immediate implant placement when the distance is greater than 2 mm. However, there remains a paucity in hierarchically designed research to support this application. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of L-PRF on the osseointegration parameters of dental implants placed after conventional osteotomy of surgically created bone defects that simulate post extraction sockets in a canine model after 3, 6, and 12 weeks in vivo. Eighty dental implants (Intra-Lock, Boca Raton, FL) were placed in the radius of 13 beagle dogs. The experiment consisted of 4 groups (n = 20 implants/group): 1) Regular osteotomy (Reg n/L-PRF); 2) Regular osteotomy and implant placement with L-PRF membrane (Reg L-PRF); 3) Wide osteotomy with no gap management performed, where an osteotomy/bony defect (6 mm of diameter and ~5 mm deep) was created to simulate immediate implant placement in post-extraction sockets, and the gap was left for spontaneous healing (Wide nL-PRF); and 4) Wide osteotomy with L-PRF gap management (Wide L-PRF). L-PRF membranes were obtained by blood drawn from each subject and centrifuged at 2700 rpm (408 RCF-clot) for 12 min. In the experimental groups where L-PRF was utilized, the membrane was inserted into the osteotomy site prior to implant placement. Six dogs had implants placed in the radius for 3 weeks; and 7 dogs had implants placed in the left radius for 6 weeks and in the right radius for 12 weeks. At the corresponding experimental time points, samples were harvested, and subjected to histological processing for qualitative and quantitative analyses, via bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone-area-fraction occupancy (BAFO). Qualitative analysis demonstrated increased amounts of bone formation around the implant and within the healing chambers over time for all groups. While comparable histological features were observed for both Reg groups (L-PRF and nL-PRF), the gap management performed in Wide L-PRF group resulted in effective gap filling with improved bone growth in close proximity to the implant surface. Quantitative analyses of BIC and BAFO yielded higher values for both variables at 3 weeks for Wide L-PRF (~38% and ~56% respectively) compared to Wide nL-PRF (~20% for BIC and BAFO) (p < .03). No statistical differences were detected between Wide groups at 6 and 12 weeks, neither between Reg groups, independent of the association with or without the L-PRF membrane at all healing times. L-PRF placed within wide osteotomies, prior to implant placement, resulted in increased early bone formation compared to unfilled wide osteotomies at the early healing time (3 weeks in vivo).

Abstract
FOCUSED CLINICAL QUESTION What are the appropriate preparation protocols for autologous blood products to support their clinical utilization? SUMMARY Autologous blood products provide a unique clinical benefit. Their popularity among the professions is growing. However, as this is a rapidly evolving field, multiple modalities are presented within the literature. Frequently there is no demonstrated superiority to previous iterations. This brief review attempts to offer a concise chronology on their evolution, preparation, and where possible, evidence to support their clinical utilization. CONCLUSIONS The field of autologous blood products is expanding rapidly. These products appear to yield variable clinical benefits in specific indications. However, evidence supporting their universal application is scant, and the superiority of one formulation versus another is yet to be demonstrated.

Postoperative pain levels Visual Analog Scale, healing status, wound healing index evaluated with. The results of both groups pre and postoperative were compared. RESULTS The initial recession height was 2.15 ± 1.0 mm in the T-PRF group; 2.04 ± 0.80 mm in the SCTG group. After 6 months, the mean root closure rate was 61.77%, 75.31% in T-PRF and SCTG group, respectively. Clinical attachment gain was achieved in both groups compared to baseline. When the results were compared, the gains achieved in the SCTG group were statistically significantly higher. İt was determined that patient satisfaction was higher in T-PRF group and wound healing was faster. CONCLUSION Considering the advantages of T-PRF such as providing effective results in the treatment of defects, patient satisfaction and rapid recovery; It can be applied as an alternative to SCTG. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE T-PRF can be an alternative to SCTG in the treatment of gingival recessions.
