Abstract

The present study evaluated the quantitative effects of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for the repair of extraction socket in Sprague Dawley (SD) rat model by assessing several key clinical parameters. Seventy two male SD rats were subjected to surgical extraction of the maxillary right incisor. Rats were randomly divided into four groups with eighteen rats in each group based on the treatment received: extraction socket without treatment of PRF was taken as control (group I). Extraction socket implanted with 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mL of PRF was taken as study groups (groups II, III, and IV). The obtained results demonstrated that, low dose of PRF efficiently enhanced the natural healing cascade. Whereas, high dose interfered with native tissue contribution and altered the natural healing process. The beneficial effects of quantity-based application of PRF may raise the possibility of a new approach as complementary therapy besides conventional treatment.
