No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Would buccal pad of fat be comparable to platelet rich fibrin for Zygomatic implant coverage as a step for reconstruction of atrophic posterior maxilla, in terms of peri-implant soft tissue thickness and avoiding complicated postoperative sequalae?

Conditions

  • Soft Tissue Augmentation at Dental Implants

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Coverage with PRF for Zygomatic implant placed

PRF preparation and placement: Shortly before being positioned at the surgical site, the PRF was freshly prepared. Ten milliliters of blood were extracted from the antecubital vein and put into a test tube devoid of anticoagulant for the PRF preparation. The blood sample was centrifuged right away for 10-12 minutes at 3000 rpm. The PRF membrane was obtained by squeezing the fibrin clot between pieces of gauze after centrifugation
