Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

  • degree of periapical inflammation using periapical index (PAI)

    The PAI is a 5-point scale radiographic interpretation designed to determine the absence, presence, or transformation of a disease state. Each of the roots was categorized as: (1) Normal periapical structure; (2) small changes in bone structure; (3) changes in bone structure with some mineral loss; (4) periodontitis with well-defined radiolucent area; and (5) severe periodontitis with exacerbating features. Each category used in the PAI represents a step on an ordinal scale of registration of periapical infection.

    18 months

  • degree of periapical inflammation using CBCT periapical index (CBCTPAI)

    CBCTPAI is a 6-point (0 -5) scoring system .The scores were calculated by analysis of the lesion in 3 dimensions, with CT slices being obtained in mesiodistal, buccopalatal, and diagonal directions. The score was determined by the largest extension of the lesion. The measurement of lesion depth in a CBCT image added the variables expansion of cortical bone (E) and destruction of cortical bone (D) usually detected starting from score 2.

    18 months

  • changes in bone mineral density of lesions in CBCT images

    region of interest measurements were made by the same operator in the sagittal view to provide consistency throughout the study protocol (baseline and at a 12 to 18 months post-operative interval). ROI was selected through drawing a polyline pattern that enabled us to include all the confines of the lesion (On Demand 3D® viewing software was used to obtain a mean grey level using the region of interest (ROI) polyline tool in sagittal plane images. The images of each CBCT scan were captured using the print screen button and exported into a Microsoft Word document as a record.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Platelet count in whole blood sample and in platelet rich plasma concentrate

    baseline

  • concentration of Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in the prepared PRP

    baseline

  • concentration of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) in the prepared PRP

    baseline

Study Arms (2)

osteotomy filled with PRP-gel and covered with PRP-biomembrane

EXPERIMENTAL

the defect was filled with the previously activated autologous Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel and its supernatant. The site was then externally covered with the prepared bio-membrane composed of activated PRP which acted as an adjunct to the mucoperiosteal flap to stimulate tissue regeneration

Procedure: osteotomy filled with PRP-gel and covered with PRP-biomembrane

osteotomy site left empty

SHAM COMPARATOR

osteotomy site following the surgical intervention was left empty

Procedure: osteotomy site following the surgical intervention was left empty

Interventions

osteotomy filled with PRP-gel and covered with PRP-biomembrane
