NCT03672669

Brief Summary

In this study, it was aimed to investigating and comparing the postoperative effects of leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) and advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) in terms of pain, swelling on the cheek, and trismus after mandibular third molar surgery. The study included a total of 27 patients with bilateral impacted mandibular third molar which surgically operated at different times. Patients were evaluated in two randomly separated groups. For the first group; A-PRF and for the second group; L-PRF was applied into the tooth socket. The outcomes variables were; pain, swelling, the number of analgesics taken, and trismus. These variables were also assessed on the basis of; 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 7th days following the operation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Pain Scores Evaluted

    For the postoperative period, the pain scores change was evaluated with the help of the visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain).

    1st day after the operation.

  • Pain Scores Evaluted

    For the postoperative period, the pain scores change was evaluated with the help of the visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain).

    2nd day after the operation.

  • Pain Scores Evaluted

    For the postoperative period, the pain scores change was evaluated with the help of the visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain).

    3rd day after the operation.

  • Pain Scores Evaluted

    For the postoperative period, the pain scores change was evaluated with the help of the visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (most severe pain).

    7th day after the operation.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Analgesics Taken by the Patients

    Each patient was evaluated on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 7th days after the operation.

  • Trismus

    Each patient was evaluated in order to obtain measurements on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 7th days after the operation.

  • Swelling on the cheek

    Each patient was evaluated in order to obtain measurements on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 7th days after the operation.

Study Arms (2)

Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A-PRF was applied into the tooth socket after mandibular third molar surgery.

Genetic: Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF)

Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

L-PRF was applied into the tooth socket after mandibular third molar surgery.

Genetic: Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF)

Interventions

blood samples collected in 10 ml of vacuumed plain glass tubes were centrifuged for 14 minutes at 1500 rpm without anticoagulant agents in order to obtain A-PRF

Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin (A-PRF)

blood samples collected in 10 ml of glass coated plastic tubes were centrifuged without anticoagulant agents for 10 minutes in order to obtain L-PRF

Leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF)
