Objectives: This study was conducted to assess and compare the effect of platelets rich fibrin (PRF) versus mineralized plasmatic matrix (MPM) as bone regenerative materials during immediate implant placement.
Material and Methods: A total of 10 patients with 12 implants have been included in this study, patients were divided into 2 groups. Group I received Mineralized Plasmatic Matrix (MPM), and group II received Platelets Rich Fibrin (PRF) as bone regenerative materials for immediate implant placement. The treatment outcome was evaluated clinically and radiographically at 3 and 6 months of implant placement. Also bone height and bone density were measured radiographically preoperatively, immediate post operatively, at 3 and 6 months postoperatively and statistically analysed.
Results: Statistical analysis showed that bone density increased significantly (p≤0.05) at 3, and 6 months postoperatively in both groups. By comparing the two groups, Group I had statistically significant (p≤0.05) higher bone density scores than Group II at all of the follow up intervals. Regarding the bone height, there was no statistically significant difference (P ≥ 0.05) between the two groups at all of the follow up intervals except that group I showed a statistically significant (P ≥ 0.05) higher mesial bone height level at 3and 6 months postoperatively accompanied by a statistically significant (P ≥ 0.05) higher distal bone level as well at 6 months postoperatively than that of group II.
Conclusion: The use of MPM was more superior to PRF as bone regenerative material for immediate implant placement regarding bone height and bone density.
