Injectable Platelets Rich Fibrin Versus Hyaluronic Acid With Bovine Derived Xenograft for Alveolar Ridge Preservation (A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial With Histomorphometric Analysis)
Injectable Platelets Rich Fibrin Versus Hyaluronic Acid With Bovine Derived Xenograft for Alveolar Ridge Preservation (A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial With Histomorphometric Analysis)
Thirty-six patients (19 females and 17 males) that required implant placement in esthetic zone participated in this study and were blindly allocated 12 patients per group, all patients had ARP either with I-PRF with xenograft, HA with xenograft or xenograft alone, the sockets were sealed with free gingival graft harvested from the palate.
The aim of this study was to compare injectable platelets rich fibrin (I-PRF) versus hyaluronic acid (HA) in combination with xenografts for ARP. Methods: Thirty-six patients (19 females and 17 males) that required implant placement in esthetic zone participated in this study and were blindly allocated 12 patients per group, all patients had ARP either with I-PRF with xenograft, HA with xenograft or xenograft alone, the sockets were sealed with free gingival graft harvested from the palate. The assessment was done by cone beam CT preoperative and 4 months postoperative to assess radiographic bone gain and crestal bone loss. Clinical parameters were soft tissue thickness, keratinized gingiva and clinical bone width that were assessed preoperative, 4 months and 1 year postoperative. Histological assessment of core bone biopsies 4 months postoperatively was performed by histomorphometric analysis of newly formed bone %, mature bone% and residual graft%
