Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin With Demineralized Freeze-dried Bone Allograft in Treatment of Intraosseous Defects

Not Applicable
Conditions
Intrabony Periodontal Defect
Interventions
Procedure: Injectable platelet rich fibrin combined with DFDBA
Procedure: Demineralized Freeze Dried Bone Allograft
Registration Number
NCT03900013
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

Clinical and radiographic evaluation of injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-PRF) and demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) compared to demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) alone in management of intraosseous defects in stage III periodontitis patients.

Detailed Description

Intraosseous defects are defined by the apical location of the periodontal pocket to the alveolar crest. In a recent radiographic study employing cone-beam computed tomography, a high prevalence of intraosseous defects 83% has been reported. Treatment of intraosseous defects is clinically challenging, as they often require complex regenerative periodontal therapy. Current regenerative techniques often employed in treatment of intraosseous defects demonstrate variation in improvement of clinical outcomes and degree of periodontal regeneration achieved.

GroupInterventionDescription
Injectable Platelet Rich Fibrin (i-PRF) with DFDBAInjectable platelet rich fibrin combined with DFDBAIn i-PRF assigned group, 10 cc of blood per intraosseous defect will be collected right after administering the anaesthesia and will be processed according to the technique proposed by Choukroun et al., 2017 (centrifuged at 700 rpm, for 2-3 minutes). The yellow part will be collected using a syringe and added to a cup that contains the bone grafting material. The i-PRF consolidated bone graft will placed into the intraosseous defect.
Demineralized Freeze-Dried Bone Allograft (DFDBA) aloneDemineralized Freeze Dried Bone AllograftAfter debridement and intraoperative recordings, in the control group, the bone graft material will be placed in the intraosseous defect without overfilling.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Clinical attachment level gain (CAL)CAL will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative

CAL will be measured from the cemento-enamel junction to the bottom of the gingival sulcus/periodontal pocket using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Probing Depth (PD)PD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative

PD will be measured from the gingival margin to the bottom of the gingival sulcus/ periodontal pocket using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.

Gingival Recession Depth (RD)RD will be measured at base line, 3, 6, and 9 months postoperative

RD will be measured from the cemento-enamel junction to the most apical extension of the gingival margin using the University of North Carolina periodontal probe at six sites per tooth.

Radiographic defect fill (IBD)Radiographic defect fill will be measured at base line, 6, and 9 months postoperative

The depth of intrabony defect will be measured from the alveolar bone crest to the base of the defect at baseline, six months and after nine months to detect the amount of bone fill Individually customized bite blocks and parallel-angle technique will be used to obtain standardized radiograph. Radiographs will be scanned and the radiographic defect fill depth will be measured by a computer-aided software program

Post-surgical patient satisfactionAfter 9 months postoperative

A 3-item questionnaire will be asked to the patients and shall use a 7-points answer scale. These items will be:

Would you experience the same surgery another time? Would you advice others with the surgery? To what extent are you satisfied with the results? 7 points mean the best

1 means the worst
