Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
PRF (Platelet rich fibrin)is referred to as second generation platelet concentrate,used in stimulation and acceleration of soft tissue and bone healing because of localand continuous delivery of growth factors and proteins, mimicking the needs of the physiological wound healingand reparative tissue processes.In this case report,a periapical endodontic surgery was performed on a 19 year old male patient with pus discharge in upper front teeth region and a large bony defect radiographically.Granulation tissue was enucleated and the periradicular bony defect was grafted using PRF and hydroxyapatite bone graft. Results of 8 months has been reportedwhich showed satisfactory healing of the periapical pathosis. On the basis of the results obtained in our case report, we hypothesizethat the use of PRF in combination with hydroxyapatite bone graft in the treatment of periapical inflammatory lesion fastens the healing process.
