Popis: AIM: The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) with hydroxyapatite (HA) on postoperative pain, swelling, soft tissue healing and osseous regeneration in mandibular third molar extraction socket in human patient. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective study included total 40 patients who reported to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS), Teerthanker Mahaveer Dental College and Research Centre (TMDC&RC), Moradabad (U.P.). Twenty patients each in both the groups of PRF and PRF with HA were included for the management of impacted mandibular 3rd molar extraction sockets and were evaluated for effectiveness. Evaluation was done on the basis of following parameters pain and swelling at time interval of 1st, 3rd, 7th day, soft tissue healing at time interval of 3rd, 7th, 14th day and osseous regeneration at time intervals of 1st, 3rd, 6th month postoperatively. RESULTS: Pain and swelling were less in the PRF with HA group when compared to PRF group. Soft tissue healing was better in the PRF with HA group compared to the PRF group. The result of the study shows rapid bone regeneration in the extraction socket treated with the PRF with HA group when compared with the PRF group. Also there was less postoperative discomfort in the PRF with HA-treated group. CONCLUSION: PRF a mitogenic promoter together with a bone graft forms a scaffolding, promotes early healing thus being creating beneficial for the patient and is also economic.
