Condition(s) studied

Class II Furcation Defect

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Injectable-PRF (I-PRF) →sticky bone (I-PRF+Xenograft) →

Injectable-PRF (I-PRF): I-PRF will be prepared as follows: (Choukran et al., 2018) i-PRF was prepared by Choukroun's method. A total of 10 mL of venous blood was withdrawn from the patient and was immediately centrifuged for 3 min at 700 rpm in the centrifuge. The liquid in the top of the tube is obtained after centrifugation was collected using a blunt ended syringe. A limited amount of i-PRF was obtained from 10 mL of blood sample (1mL approximately). The injectable platelet rich fibrin will be injected into the defect Microsurgical suturing technique with 5or 6-0 monofilament polypropylene suture materials will be performed for optimal wound closure of the surgical area.

sticky bone (I-PRF+Xenograft): The xenograft will be obtained and mixed with i-PRF. Mixing of xenograft and injectable platelet rich fibrin to get sticky bone graft that will be easily placed into the defect. The flap will approximated and Microsurgical suturing technique with 5or 6-0 monofilament polypropylene suture materials will be performed for optimal wound closure of the surgical area.

Study summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical efficiency and radiographic outcomes following minimally invasive surgical technique with xenograft and i-PRF versus i-PRF in the management of class II furcation defects in mandibular molars

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with healthy systemic condition * Adult patients (18 years old and older) * Patients with stage lll or IV periodontitis. * Patients having a buccal or lingual degree II A or B furcation defect in periapical-lesion free and not mobile first or second mandibular molars with horizontal attachment loss HCAL \>3 mm and probing depth PD ≥5 mm in the mid-buccal or mid-lingual sites when evaluated 12 weeks after non-surgical periodontal therapy. * Patients with full mouth plaque score\<10% on the day of the surgery. * Patients with full mouth bleeding score\<10% on the day of the surgery. * Compliance with good oral hygiene. * Patients accept 12-months follow-up period (cooperative patients). * Patients provide an informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Ongoing drug therapy that might have an impact on the clinical signs and symptoms of periodontitis. * Defects that involve the buccal and lingual sites. * Smokers ˃ 10 cigarettes / day * Pregnant and lactating female

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • difference in probing depth — at baseline,6 months,12 months follow up
    It is measured in milimeters using UNC 15 periodontal probe that inserted in the buccal gingival sulcus in the area corresponding to the furcation defect with a force not exceed 25 g
