Summary

Alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction is important for maintaining bone volume and facilitating future implant placement. Titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) is an autologous platelet concentrate that may enhance soft and hard tissue healing through the sustained release of growth factors. However, clinical evidence regarding its effect on socket healing remains limited.

The aim of this prospective randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of T-PRF on alveolar socket healing following tooth extraction. Participants requiring tooth extraction and subsequent implant placement are randomly assigned to either a T-PRF group or a spontaneous healing (control) group. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is used to evaluate socket healing volumetrically. The primary outcome is the percentage of socket fill and residual non-ossified socket volume after 3 months. Secondary outcomes include baseline socket volume and postoperative clinical healing.

The findings of this study are expected to provide evidence regarding the effectiveness of T-PRF in enhancing alveolar socket healing and preserving ridge dimensions before implant placement.

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Titanium-Prepared Platelet-Rich Fibrin (T-PRF)

Autologous titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) was prepared from the participant's venous blood collected into sterile titanium tubes without anticoagulant and centrifuged immediately after blood collection. The resulting fibrin clot was separated from the red blood cell layer, compressed into a membrane, and placed into the extraction socket immediately after atraumatic tooth extraction. The socket was then stabilized with sutures according to the study protocol.
