Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin With Demineralized Freeze-dried Bone Allograft in Treatment of Intraosseous Defects

February 2, 2021 updated by: Mashaal Mohammed Abdullah Mohammed, Cairo University

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Injectable PRF With Demineralized Freeze-Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) Compared to (DFDBA) in Treatment of Intraosseous Defects in Patients With Stage III Periodontitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Clinical and radiographic evaluation of injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-PRF) and demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) compared to demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) alone in management of intraosseous defects in stage III periodontitis patients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Intraosseous defects are defined by the apical location of the periodontal pocket to the alveolar crest. In a recent radiographic study employing cone-beam computed tomography, a high prevalence of intraosseous defects 83% has been reported. Treatment of intraosseous defects is clinically challenging, as they often require complex regenerative periodontal therapy. Current regenerative techniques often employed in treatment of intraosseous defects demonstrate variation in improvement of clinical outcomes and degree of periodontal regeneration achieved.

  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin (i-PRF) with DFDBA

In i-PRF assigned group, 10 cc of blood per intraosseous defect will be collected right after administering the anaesthesia and will be processed according to the technique proposed by Choukroun et al., 2017 (centrifuged at 700 rpm, for 2-3 minutes). The yellow part will be collected using a syringe and added to a cup that contains the bone grafting material.

The i-PRF consolidated bone graft will placed into the intraosseous defect.

The i-PRF will be mixed with bone graft then will be placed into the intraosseous defect
Active Comparator: Demineralized Freeze-Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) alone
After debridement and intraoperative recordings, in the control group, the bone graft material will be placed in the intraosseous defect without overfilling.
Demineralized Freeze Dried Bone Allograft alone will be placed into the intraosseous defect

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical attachment level gain (CAL)
Time Frame: CAL will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative
CAL will be measured from the cemento-enamel junction to the bottom of the gingival sulcus/periodontal pocket using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.
CAL will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Probing Depth (PD)
Time Frame: PD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative
PD will be measured from the gingival margin to the bottom of the gingival sulcus/ periodontal pocket using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.
PD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative
Radiographic defect fill (IBD)
Time Frame: Radiographic defect fill will be measured at base line, 6, and 9 months postoperative
The depth of intrabony defect will be measured from the alveolar bone crest to the base of the defect at baseline, six months and after nine months to detect the amount of bone fill Individually customized bite blocks and parallel-angle technique will be used to obtain standardized radiograph. Radiographs will be scanned and the radiographic defect fill depth will be measured by a computer-aided software program
Radiographic defect fill will be measured at base line, 6, and 9 months postoperative
Gingival Recession Depth (RD)
Time Frame: RD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative
RD will be measured from the cemento-enamel junction to the most apical extension of the gingival margin using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.
RD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative
Post-surgical patient satisfaction
Time Frame: After 9 months postoperative

A 3-item questionnaire will be asked to the patients and shall use a 7-points answer scale. These items will be:

Would you experience the same surgery another time? Would you advice others with the surgery? To what extent are you satisfied with the results? 7 points mean the best

1 means the worst

After 9 months postoperative
