Introduction:
Various materials are used to improve the longevity of the dental implants. In our study, we assessed the marginal bone loss around dental implants after implantation with platelet-rich plasma.
Materials And Methods:
We conducted a prospective clinical study among 200 subjects who were grouped equally as those with and without the application of PRF in the implantation. The radiographic and clinical features for the marginal bone loss were assessed and compared keeping P < 0.05 as statistically significant.
Results:
We observed no significant variation between the groups for the mobility, bleeding on probing, plaque index, and marginal bone loss.
Conclusion:
We can conclude that the application of PRP concentrate did not significantly affect the marginal bone loss in the dental implantation.
