Background: The clinical and radiographic efficacy of bone grafts and biomaterials, such as platelet-rich plasma and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), for reconstructing lost periodontal structures has been well documented. However, there is limited data regarding the presence of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft (DFDBA) in an environment with abundant growth factors provided by platelet concentrates.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to compare the clinical and radiographic effectiveness of DFDBA with PRF versus DFDBA alone in the treatment of intrabony defects.
