Alveolar bone resorption is one of post-extraction complications with a reduction in the dimensions and quality of the alveolar bone, which will make it challenging to install dental implants in the future. The resorption can be prevented by preserving the alveolar bone using bone grafts. Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) is a widely developed material as a bone graft. However, there are still some limitations because it only has osteoconductive properties. The addition of injectable platelet-rich fibrin to HA can increase this material’s osteoinductive, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it suitable for use as bone graft material for the preservation of alveolar bone. |
