Brief Summary

Background: platelet concentrate could enhance growth factors (GF) crevicular fluid levels which might be crucial to proper tissue repair and wound healing. However, the open usually contaminated nature of periodontal defects could affect negatively GF availability and activity. To test this assumption, this study was designed to evaluate levels of VEGF and PDGF-BB in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) during the early stages of healing of localized intrabony defects treated with platelet rich in growth factor (PRGF) and platelet rich fibrin (PRF) as compared with xenograft defect filling control. Methods: Thirty non-smoking patients with severe chronic periodontitis participated in this prospective, randomized and single blinded trial. Each patient contributed one interproximal defect that was randomly assigned to the bone substitute grafting control (n=10) G1, experimental PRGF (n=10) G2 and PRF (n=10) G3. Plaque index, gingival index, probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and the intrabony depth of the defect (IBD) were measured at baseline for patient enrollment. Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected on days 1 and 3, 7, 14, 21, and 30 days after therapy. The primary outcome variable was the change in VEGF and PDGF-BB levels for sites treated by PRGF and PRF compared to that of the xenograft treated cases.
