Platelet-Rich Fibrin as an Antibiotic Delivery Vehicle in Mandibular Third Molar Surgery
18. august 2026 oppdatert av: Amerigo Giudice
Effects of Antibiotic-Prepared Platelet-Rich Fibrin on Postoperative Recovery After Mandibular Third Molar Surgery: A Randomized Split-Mouth Clinical Trial
The present study aims to evaluate the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) used as a local antibiotic delivery vehicle on postoperative outcomes, including facial swelling, trismus, and pain, following mandibular third molar surgery in a randomized split-mouth clinical trial.

Våpen og intervensjoner
Deltakergruppe / Arm |
Intervensjon / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentell: Test Group - Antibiotic and PRF
Participants will receive platelet-rich fibrin prepared with the addition of antibiotic prior to centrifugation.
The antibiotic-enriched PRF clot will be placed into the mandibular third molar extraction socket to provide local antibiotic delivery at the surgical site.
|
Platelet-rich fibrin prepared with the addition of antibiotic prior to centrifugation and applied into the mandibular third molar extraction socket to provide local antibiotic delivery.
|
|
Aktiv komparator: Control Group - PRF only
Participants will receive standard platelet-rich fibrin prepared without antibiotic addition.
The PRF clot will be placed into the mandibular third molar extraction socket according to the same surgical protocol.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse |
Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Incidence of postoperative infection
Tidsramme: Up to 7 days after surgery
|
Occurrence of postoperative infection following mandibular third molar surgery, assessed through clinical examination based on the presence of signs and symptoms of infection (e.g., purulent discharge, erythema, fever, or need for additional antibiotic therapy).
|
Up to 7 days after surgery
|
|
Facial swelling quantitative analysis - volumetric differences
Tidsramme: Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
To compare postoperative facial swelling between treatment groups using quantitative three-dimensional analysis based on volumetric differences.
Facial volume changes will be measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) through three-dimensional facial scan superimposition.
|
Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
|
Facial swelling quantitative analysis - linear differences
Tidsramme: Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
To compare postoperative facial swelling between treatment groups using quantitative three-dimensional analysis based on linear measurements.
Facial changes will be assessed by evaluating linear differences (mm) between preoperative and postoperative three-dimensional facial scans.
|
Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
|
Facial swelling qualitative analysis
Tidsramme: Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
Change in facial volume from baseline, assessed by three-dimensional facial scan superimposition and expressed as colorimetric variation between the preoperative and postoperative scans.
|
Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery

Trismus analysis
Tidsramme: Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
To compare postoperative limitation of mouth opening between treatment groups following mandibular third molar surgery.
Trismus will be assessed by measuring maximum mouth opening (MMO) in millimeters (mm).
|
Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
|
Pain analysis with Visual analogue scale (VAS)
Tidsramme: Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
|
To compare postoperative pain intensity between treatment groups following mandibular third molar surgery.
Pain will be assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain).
|
Change from baseline (before surgery) at 2 day after surgery and at 7 days after surgery
