Platelet Rich Fibrin With 1% Metformin Gel for Treatment of Intrabony Defects
Periodontitis

About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Periodontitis focused on measuring Periodontal Surgery, Periodontal Regeneration, Growth factors, Clinical trials
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Presence of 3- wall intrabony defects ≥3 mm deep (distance between alveolar crest and base of the defect on an intraoral periapical radiograph [IOPA] ) along with an interproximal probing depth (PD) ≥5 mm after phase I therapy (scaling and root planing [SRP] ) in asymptomatic molar teeth.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Aggressive Periodontitis subjects
- Subjects with systemic conditions known to affect the periodontal status
- Medications known to affect the outcomes of periodontal therapy
- Hematological disorders and insufficient platelet count (<200,000/mm3)
- Pregnancy/lactation
- Smoking and tobacco use in any form
- Immunocompromised individuals. Those having unacceptable oral hygiene (plaque index [PI]16 > 1.5) after re-evaluation of Phase I therapy were also excluded from the study.
- In addition, teeth with furcation defects, non vital teeth, carious teeth warranting restorations and mobility of at least grade II were also excluded.

ARM1- open flap debridement (OFD)
ARM2- open flap debridement plus PRF(Platelet rich fibrin)
ARM3- open flap debridement plus 1%Metformin
ARM4- open flap debridement plus PRF plus metformin
open flap debridement done for 30 subjects. After debridement, Metformin or PRF was not added into the intrabony defect.
After open flap debridement, PRF( Platelet rich fibrin) was added into the intrabony defect. No. of subjects= 30
After open flap debridement, 1% metformin was added into the intrabony defect No. of subjects= 30
After open flap debridement, PRF and 1% metformin was added into the intrabony defect. No. of subject- 30
