In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a second-generation platelet concentrate used for tissue and bone regeneration. PRF releases growth factors such as TGF-ฮฒ, PDGF, VEGF, IGF, and FGF, which are known to promote wound healing and bone regeneration. Thus, PRF may offer a promising therapeutic approach for peri-implantitis treatment. Numerous studies have reported beneficial effects of PRF on bone regeneration, bone augmentation, soft tissue healing, and ridge preservation. In infrabony periodontal defects, PRF has shown significant improvements in pocket depth reduction, clinical attachment level (CAL) gain, and bone fill. However, a recent systematic review highlighted that evidence supporting PRF use in peri-implantitis remains limited, primarily due to a lack of adequately designed studies. Therefore, the aim of this project is to investigate whether PRF enhances regeneration in peri-implan
