Background:
Periodontal bone defects pose a significant challenge in stomatology, affecting dental stability and function.
Objective:
This study aimed to explore the clinical efficacy of concentrated growth factor (CGF) combined with artificial or autologous bone powder in the treatment of periodontal bone defects.
Methods:
A total of 106 patients with bone defects requiring surgical intervention were divided into two groups: the control group and the observation group. Preoperative data were analyzed, and postoperative periodontal indicators, bone resorption markers, and masticatory function were assessed at baseline and 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months post surgery.
Results:
There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. The observation group showed improvements in periodontal probing depth, mucosal recession, plaque index, gingival index, gingival retreat index, and bone gla protein after 6 months. The masticatory function of the observation group was significantly better at 1 to 6 months post operation, and there were significant differences in postoperative pain levels at 6 months.
Conclusion:
CGF combined with artificial bone powder demonstrates superior performance in masticatory function recovery and periodontal clinical parameter restoration, indicating potential benefits for periodontal bone defect treatment.
