Randomized trial compares extended platelet rich fibrin to allograft for bone filling in dental implants, indicating similar outcomes.
Key Points
This trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of extended platelet rich fibrin versus allograft as space-filling materials in immediate dental implants.
Twenty-eight implants were placed in immediate dental implant placement after tooth extraction.
Patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups: e-PRF and allograft for peri-implant gap filling.
Implant stability was measured using resonance frequency analysis and bone metrics assessed via CBCT.
All 28 implants were successful with no complications over 12 months.
No significant differences were found between e-PRF and allograft regarding implant stability, marginal bone loss, or buccal bone thickness.
