UNLABELLED: : To evaluate the efficacy of autologous platelet rich fibrin in soft tissue healing and bone regeneration in mandibular third molar extraction sockets. METHOD: The study was conducted in 20 patients visiting in outpatient department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, requiring extraction of bilateral mandibular third molar, following extraction platelet rich fibrin (PRF) was placed in one extraction sockets, the other socket was studied as the control sites with no PRF. The patient were assessed for post operative pain, soft tissue healing and trabecular pattern in healing bone. Radiological assessment of the extraction site was done for period of 3 months to evaluate the change in bone density. RESULTS: Pain was less in study side compare to control site soft tissue was healing was better in study site. Evaluation of trabecular bone formation started earlier in PRF site compare to control site. The evaluation of bone density by radiological assessment showed the grey level value calculated after 3 months at the PRF site well comparatively higher than the average baseline value of the bone density at the extraction site in control site. CONCLUSION: The study showed that autologous PRF is biocompatible and has significantly improved soft tissue healing. Bone regeneration and increase in bone density in extraction sockets. However, a more elaborate study with a large number of clinical cases is essential to be more conclusive regarding its efficacy.
