The results of this study suggest that PRP and BPBM provide an added regenerative effect to GTR in promoting the clinical resolution of intrabony defects on patients with severe periodontitis.
The results of this study show that both combinations of PRP/BPBM/GTR and PRP/BPBM are effective in the treatment of intrabony defects present in patients with advanced chronic periodontitis. The results also suggest that GTR adds no clinical benefit to PRP/BPBM. Further studies are necessary to assess the individual role played by PRP and BPBM in the clinical outcome achieved with their combination.
It was concluded that the PRP/BPBM/GTR combined technique is an effective modality of regenerative treatment for mandibular grade II furcation defects. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the role played by each component of the combined therapy in achieving these results.
The results of this study indicate that clinical resolution of intrabony defects can be achieved using a combination of bovine porous bone mineral and an absorbable, porcine derived collagen membrane when employing a technique based on the principles of guided tissue regeneration. The nature of the attachment between the newly regenerated tissue and the root surfaces needs to be evaluated histologically to confirm the presence of new attachment.
The results of this study indicate that a combination technique including BPBM, EMP, and GTR results in better clinical resolution of intrabony defects than treatment with OFD. Differences observed were both statistically and clinically significant. The exact role of each of the 3 technique components in achieving the clinical improvement observed in this study remains to be determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
