Comparison of PRP & DFDBA vs. DFDBA in Intrabony Periodontal Defects

May 23, 2023 updated by: Dr. Pallavi Meshram, Government Dental College and Hospital, India

Comparison of Efficacy of Autologous Platelet - Rich Plasma Combined With Demineralized Freeze - Dried Bone Allograft Versus Demineralized Freeze - Dried Bone Allograft: A Randomized Clinical Trial in Central India

The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the results in subjects with periodontitis using subjects own blood - Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with bone graft material, namely, Demineralized Freeze - Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) or DFDBA alone in the treatment of bone defects around the teeth.

Completed

Detailed Description

After being informed about the study and potential risks, 13 patients giving written informed consent and who meet the eligibility requirements were randomly allocated in a single blind manner (participants) to test group (PRP combined with DFDBA) or control group (DFDBA).

33 sites (18 test, 15 control unpaired defects) were treated - 1) to investigate the possible additional effects of PRP when combined with DFDBA, and 2) to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes obtained in test and control groups,12 months post - operatively.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Probing Pocket Depth (PPD) from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
PPD is vertical measurement from the free gingival margin to the base of the pocket measured to the nearest millimeter using a UNC (University of North Carolina) -15 periodontal probe.
baseline to 12 months
Change in Periodontal Attachment Level (PAL) from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
PAL is vertical measurement recorded with the help of customized acrylic stent from a fixed reference point to the base of the pocket measured to the nearest millimeter using UNC - 15 probe
baseline to 12 months
Change in Gingival Recession (GR) from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
GR is vertical measurement recorded with the help of customized acrylic stent from a fixed reference point to the gingival margin measured to the nearest millimeter using UNC-15 probe
baseline to 12 months
Change in Crestal bone resorption from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
Crestal bone resorption is the distance from Cementoenamel Junction to the Alveolar Crest (CEJ- AC); measured in millimeters using standardized intraoral periapical (IOPA) radiographs along with a calibrated grid of the tooth of interest
baseline to 12 months
Change in Defect fill from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
Defect fill is the distance from Cementoenamel Junction to Base of the Defect (CEJ- BD); measured in millimeters using standardized intraoral periapical (IOPA) radiographs along with a calibrated grid of the tooth of interest
baseline to 12 months
Change in Defect resolution from baseline to 12 months
Time Frame: baseline to 12 months
Defect resolution is the distance from the Alveolar Crest to Base of the Defect (AC - BD); measured in millimeters using standardized intraoral periapical (IOPA) radiographs along with a calibrated grid of the tooth of interest
baseline to 12 months
