Highlights
Pulp necrosis followed by trauma or dental caries if left untreated may lead to periapical pathologies like peri apical granuloma & cystic lesions
This study is in accordance with the studies carried out by Kumar et al & Ahmed et al who revealed that platelet rich fibrin (PRF) significantly reduced post-operative pain & less analgesic consumption after third molar surgery
The present study showed marked bone healing of surgical cavity from 3r d month & at 6th month radiographic bone healing was complete in PRF group
Summary
Pulp necrosis followed by trauma or dental caries if left untreated may lead to periapical pathologies like peri apical granuloma & cystic lesions. Periapical surgery is indicated in cases where conventional root canal therapy fails.. 2 Periapical surgery is aimed to remove periapical pathology followed by complete soft tissue & radiographic bone healing. Successful endodontic therapy depends on complete periapical repair & regeneration of soft tissue & bone. 3,4 The teeth undergoing apical surgery have less predictable prognosis, so the possibility of accelerating bone regeneration in surgical defects in periapical region is important, as even a single tooth can be strategic in. Bone & soft tissue regeneration can be achieved by local application of hormones, growth factors & plasma derivatives as advocated by studies. 5 Bone morphogenic proteins, parathyroid hormone, plateletderived growth factor, platelet rich plasma, & enamel matrix proteins have been applied to promote healing of surgical wounds /defects.
