Abstract
Tissue repair surrounding implants is essential for the cosmetic maxillary anterior zone to respond favorably to implant therapy. Grafting platelets from an individual's blood was developed to overcome the esthetic requirements and speed up healing. Advanced platelet-rich fibrin (APRF) and concentrated growth factor (CGF) are used for good healing. Our aim was to evaluate the impact of APRF and CGF on healing of tissues around dental implants in the anterior region of the maxilla. A total of 60 patients who underwent dental implant placement procedures were included in this study. They were divided into two categories: category 1 consisted of patients who underwent dental implant placement procedures without APRF and CGF (n = 30) and category 2 consisted of patients who underwent dental implant placement procedures with APRF and CGF (n = 30). Assessment of alveolar bone height and bone density was conducted using CBCT at baseline and second, fourth, and sixth month postoperatively. The alveolar height and alveolar bone density in APRF group and CGF group patients was greater compared to control group patients at all follow-ups. APRF and CGF have a positive effect on the tissues around dental implants, promoting faster and better tissue healing around dental implants.
