Influence of platelet-rich fibrin on wound healing and bone regeneration after tooth extraction: A clinical and radiographic study.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of autologous platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on soft tissue healing and bone regeneration following tooth extraction clinically and radio-graphically.

Materials And Methods: 30 Patients between the age group of 18-40 years requiring extraction of bilateral mandibular molars except third molars were selected to conduct a split-mouth study after ethical approval. Teeth extraction was done on both sides in the same appointment.

Use of Temporalis Fascia Flap in the Treatment of Temporomandibular Joint Ankylosis: A Clinical Audit of 5 Years.

Aim: Restoration of normal function and jaw movements in patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis has been a challenge. Various techniques have been provided for its treatment; but the results have been variable. The purpose of this paper is to present an easy and versatile method for the treatment of TMJ ankylosis and to decrease postoperative complications such as reankylosis.
