Abstract
The use of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) membranes for guided bone and tissue regeneration in through-and-through defects after endodontic surgery was explored in three cases. Herein, three patients presented to the endodontic clinic suffering from apical periodontitis, associated with large bone resorption and related to previously endodontically treated teeth. Periapical surgery was indicated in these cases and the osteotomy site was covered by A-PRF membrane. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to assess the cases before and after the surgery. Four months post-surgery, the recall CBCT scan showed complete obliteration of the osteotomy with newly formed bone. A-PRF membrane showed promising results and was an advantageous addition to surgical endodontic treatment.
