Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Extraction method of modified platelet-rich fibrin has been determined, and its structure and constitutes have been investigated. Animal experiments have shown that modified platelet-rich fibrin can cooperate with osteoblasts to promote osteogenesis.
OBJECTIVE: To extract modified platelet-rich fibrin and to explore the effect of modified platelet-rich fibrin gel on the repair of distal bone defect of adjacent mandibular second molar after extraction of mandibular wisdom tooth.
METHODS: Forty-eight patients with proximal or horizontal obstruction of unilateral mandibular third molar were selected from the Department of Stomatology of Anqing Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University. Patients were randomly divided into modified platelet-rich fibrin group and control group. The third molar was removed and the tooth extraction socket was cleared by the same method. Modified platelet-rich fibrin gel made from the patient’s own blood was put into the distal surface of the second molar in the modified platelet-rich fibrin group at the same time. The control group did not put any materials after tooth extraction. All patients were followed up at 1, 2, 3 and 4 months after surgery to evaluate the periodontal status of adjacent mandibular second molars, including periodontal examination and imaging analysis. Full-oral curved tomography and cone-beam CT were taken at 4 months after surgery. Statistical analysis was conducted on SPSS 21.0 software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) There was no significant difference in the periodontal depth of the adjacent second molars between modified platelet-rich fibrin and control groups. (2) At 4 months after surgery, the bone mineral density and bone yield in the modified platelet-rich fibrin group were significantly higher than those in the control group (both P < 0.05). (3) In summary, modified platelet-rich fibrin can promote osteogenesis of mandibular proximal second molar after mandibular wisdom tooth extraction.
