Article Synopsis
- The case report discusses an apexification procedure on a necrotic, infected tooth with an open apex, emphasizing the importance of disinfecting the canal for successful treatment.
- The patient, a 24-year-old man, had a maxillary central incisor affected by apical periodontitis due to a past injury, and the treatment involved the use of sodium hypochlorite, chlorhexidine, and calcium hydroxide dressing.
- Following the application of concentrated growth factor (CGF) as a stabilizing matrix, the tooth showed positive healing results after one year, suggesting CGF's potential as an effective scaffold in treating similar cases.
Introduction: Clinical evidence of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) benefits on bone repair is still emerging, prompting researchers to experiment with different PRF formulations as osteoconductive scaffolds.
Aims: This study compared the osteoconductive effects of injectable PRF (i-PRF) and leukocyte-rich PRF (L-PRF) on the differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) into osteoblasts.
Materials And Methods: Blood samples were collected from the volunteers to prepare L-PRF and i-PRF conditioned media (CM) by centrifugation.
