Background. Various treatment modalities, such as leucocyte platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF), bone grafts, and membranes, have been used for the restoration of lost periodontal tissues. Titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) has attracted attention for its proper haemocompatibility, thick fibrin meshwork, and long resorption time. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of T-PRF and L-PRF in the management of intra-bony defects based on clinical and radiographic criteria. Methods. Twenty-six subjects with 34 intra-bony 3- walled defects were divided into two groups (n=17) and treated with T-PRF or L-PRF. Clinical and radiographic measurements were recorded at baseline and 6-, 3- and 9- month intervals and tabulated on Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. For intra- and intergroup comparisons, paired and unpaired t-tests were performed. P<0.05 was set as statistically significant Results. Intra-group comparisons revealed statistically significant differences (P<0.05) from baseline in both groups regarding clinical measurements. On intergroup comparison, the T-PRF group exhibited a significantly higher defect fill compared to the L-PRF group (P<0.05). Conclusion. Within the limits of the present study, T-PRF seems to be a better alternative to L-PRF in the treatment of intra-bony defects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
