Bilateral Sinus Lift Procedure With Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) Alone And Demineralized Freeze Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) Material With Bio-Membrane - A Comparative Study
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Dental Advancements - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
Context: Anatomic limitations often associated with the posterior maxilla are a flat palatal vault, deficient alveolar height, inadequate posterior alveolus, increased pneumatization of the maxillary sinus and close approximation of the sinus to crestal bone. The present study was taken to evaluate the alveolar bone growth on maxillary sinus after bilateral sinus lift procedures, performed using platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) alone on one side and Demineralized freeze dried bone allograft (DFDBA) with bio membrane on the other Aims and objectives: The aim and objective of this study is to compare and evaluate the alveolar bone growth on maxillary sinus after bilateral sinus lift procedures, performed using PRF alone on one side and DFDBA with bio membrane on the other with the simultaneous placement of dental implants. Materials and Methods: A total of twenty patients who needed implants in the maxillary posterior region with deficient maxillary ridge height were selected. All patients received only autologous PRF on one side and DFDBA material with bio-membrane on the contralateral side. All sinus augmentations were performed with the simultaneous placement of dental implants. Results: Postoperative infection was not seen in any of the cases in both PRF and DFDBA (with bio-membrane) sides. Observation of slightly more bone formation and bone opacity with PRF than DFBDA with biomembrane was made. The thickness of the regenerated bone was similar to that of native bone on more sites on PRF group than that on the side of DFDBA. Comparing PRF alone and DFDBA with bio-membrane, a higher percentage of new bone formation on PRF sites and more implants were firm after 6 months on the side of PRF compared with that of DFDBA with bio-membrane side. Conclusion: After assessing the results of both the materials, clinically and radiologically, it can be concluded that both PRF and DFDBA have given good results and showed greater ability in sinus lift procedures, only when they are compared with each other, PRF alone was superior to DFDBA.
