Summary

The purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) enriched with allograft on alveolar bone regeneration when compared with autogenous block bone graft, in the same participants.

The study was designed as a split-mouth randomized controlled trial. The patients were randomly assigned to one of two surgical groups: the test group with i-PRF enriched particulate allograft using the screw tent-pole technique; and the control group with autogenous block bone harvested from the ramus area. All augmentation sites covered by leukocytes-PRF (L-PRF) membrane. The primary outcome variable of this study was the radiographic and histologic data collected at postoperative 6 months. The secondary outcome variable was nerve alterations and implant survival.

Conditions

  • Alveolar Bone Loss

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Autogenous block bone graft

Vertical and horizontal osteotomies were performed by means of a 6-mm diameter separation disc under copious irrigation with saline.The harvested bone graft was immediately placed in sterile saline solution to prevent dehydration. Sharp edges around the block graft were rounded under saline irrigation using a 4-mm round bur. The screw holes were properly made on both the recipient site and the block graft using a 1.3 mm drill. The graft was firmly fixed with 1.3 mm screws and a compatible driver. The periphery of the graft and the underlying gap between the screws and the recipient site, were covered with a mixture of particulate allograft and sterile saline solution to minimize resorption and to improve the adaption of the graft. All augmentation sites were covered by L-PRF membrane and flap closure was effected with 4/0 silk suture.

PROCEDURE

i-PRF enriched allograft material+ screw tent pole technique

The i-PRF preparation was performed as follows: the blood sample collected in an 8 ml, non-coated plastic tube without anticoagulant was immediately centrifuged at a protocol of 2700 rpm for 2 min. After centrifugation, the liquid autologous fibrin material which comprised the 1 mL upper layer of the tube was collected, using a disposable syringe. The screw holes were made on the recipient site using a 1.3 mm drill. 7 mm long screws were fixed 2mm or 4mm higher than on the recipient site to provide the desired augmentation distance and stabilized by a compatible driver. i-PRF was mixed with allograft material in a sterile metal box. Polymerization was done in 3 to 5 minutes, then this material was applied to the underlying gap between the screws and the recipient site.All augmentation sites were covered by L-PRF membrane and flap closure was effected with 4/0 silk suture.
