Summary

Abstract:

Background: Leucocyte and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) has shown to promote regenerative processes, even reporting antibacterial effect. The aim of this split-mouth clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of L-PRF as an adjuvant to scaling and root planing (SRP).

Methods: 13 patients with chronic periodontitis and at least 1 bilateral periodontal pocket ≥ 6 mm were recruited. The sites were randomly treated with SRP + L-PRF (test group) or SRP alone (control group). The following parameters were evaluated at baseline and 6 weeks, 3 and 6 months after treatment: Probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP); gingival recession (GR), and root sensitivity (RS). Additionally, the concentrations of Porphyromona gingivalis (P.g), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A.a), Prevotella intermedia (P.i) and Fusobacterium nucleatum (F.n) in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) were evaluated at baseline, 6 weeks and 3 months after treatment.
