AIMS: This study investigated the effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on bone regeneration of various grafting materials in rabbit calvarial defects. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two bicortical skull defects were prepared in 20 New Zealand white rabbits; 10 rabbits were treated with PRF and the other 10 were non-PRF. In both groups, autogenous bone was compare to empty defects in 5 rabbits and the composite of autogenous bone and deproteinized bovine bone versus deproteinized bovine bone (DBB) in the other five. The animals were sacrificed at 8 weeks. Bone formation was assessed by radiographic densitometry and histomorphometric analysis. RESULTS: The mean optical density (OD) and histomorphometric analysis (HA) of the percentage of new bone showed that the PRF groups were significantly higher than the non-PRF groups in the autogenous bone graft (OD: 0.60 ± 0.19 vs 0.36 ± 0.03; HA: 38.03 ± 4.23 vs 26.21 ± 10.58) and the empty defect (OD: 0.29 ± 0.06 vs 0.11 ± 0.06; HA: 18.81 ± 9.27 vs 6.24 ± 5.01), but not in the DBB group (OD: 1.18 ± 0.17 vs 1.07 ± 0.05; HA: 13.067 ± 3.64 vs 9.63 ± 5.47) and the composite group (OD: 0.81 ± 0.15 vs 0.91 ± 0.05; HA: 22.63 ± 3.61 vs 21.29 ± 3.52). CONCLUSIONS: PRF had a positive effect on bone formation when used alone or combined with autogenous bone, but not with deproteinized bovine bone.
