Summary

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of subgingival injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) application on clinical periodontal parameters as an adjunct to non-surgical periodontal treatment (NSPT) in smokers with periodontitis.

Twenty-five systemically healthy, smoker patients with stage II/III periodontitis were included in the study. In this split-mouth trial, subgingival i-PRF was applied to the test group in addition to NSPT, while saline was applied to the control group after NSPT. Subgingival i-PRF/saline application was repeated on the 7th day in both groups. Clinical periodontal parameters were recorded at baseline, 1st and 3rd months after the treatment.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Non-surgical periodontal treatment

The non-surgical periodontal treatment (scaling and root planing) was applied under local anesthesia using ultrasonic device and Gracey curettes. After scaling and root planing, periodontal pockets were irrigated using saline solution. Non-surgical periodontal treatment was completed in one or two sessions within 24 hours.

DEVICE

Subgingival application of saline

For the subgingival saline application at the control sites, the insulin needle was filled with saline and the 29-gauge needle tip was gently placed into the periodontal pocket. The saline was injected into the periodontal pocket until it was seen to overflow from the gingival margin. Subgingival saline application was repeated on the 7th day.

OTHER

Subgingival application of i-PRF

For subgingival application of i-PRF at the test sites, the i-PRF taken into the insulin syringe, the 29-gauge needle tip was gently placed into the periodontal pocket and the i-PRF was injected into the periodontal pocket until it reached the gingival margin (until it overflowed from the sulcus). Subgingival i-PRF application was repeated on the 7th day.
