Summary

This study tested whether a substance made from a patient's own blood, called injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF), could improve healing after standard gum surgery. 42 adults with advanced gum disease (pockets deeper than 5 mm) took part. Half received the extra i-PRF treatment during surgery. Researchers measured changes in gum pocket depth and attachment over 6 months to see if the new approach worked better than surgery alone.
