Background: Periodontal intra-bony defects are challenging conditions in dental practice, often requiring regenerative approaches for successful treatment. This clinical study aimed to compare the effectiveness of plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) versus xenogenic bone graft (BXG) in addressing intra-bony defects. Methods: Forty patients aged between 30 and 50 years presenting with generalized periodontitis were included. The study assessed various parameters, including relative attachment level (RAL); probing pocket depth (PPD); gingival marginal level (GML); intra-bony defect depth (IBDD) at baseline, 3, and 6 months; and level of pain, post-operative bleeding, and swelling, as patient-reported outcomes during the first seven days post operation. Results: The results revealed that both PRGF and BXG treatments led to significant reductions in IBDD over the 6-month study period. PRGF demonstrated significant advantages in GML enhancement and post-operative pain management during the initial post-treatment days. However, BXG showed a significantly greater reduction in IBDD compared to PRGF. Post-operative bleeding and swelling levels were comparable between the two treatments. Conclusions: These findings underscore the efficacy of both PRGF and BXG in periodontal regeneration, with treatment decisions guided by patient-specific factors and clinical goals.

Abstract

Background: Periodontal intra-bony defects are challenging conditions in dental practice, often requiring regenerative approaches for successful treatment. This clinical study aimed to compare the effectiveness of plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) versus xenogenic bone graft (BXG) in addressing intra-bony defects. Methods: Forty patients aged between 30 and 50 years presenting with generalized periodontitis were included. The study assessed various parameters, including relative attachment level (RAL); probing pocket depth (PPD); gingival marginal level (GML); intra-bony defect depth (IBDD) at baseline, 3, and 6 months; and level of pain, post-operative bleeding, and swelling, as patient-reported outcomes during the first seven days post operation. Results: The results revealed that both PRGF and BXG treatments led to significant reductions in IBDD over the 6-month study period. PRGF demonstrated significant advantages in GML enhancement and post-operative pain management during the initial post-treatment days. However, BXG showed a significantly greater reduction in IBDD compared to PRGF. Post-operative bleeding and swelling levels were comparable between the two treatments. Conclusions: These findings underscore the efficacy of both PRGF and BXG in periodontal regeneration, with treatment decisions guided by patient-specific factors and clinical goals.
