Blood clot breakthrough: new dental therapy speeds healing

NCT ID NCT05847647

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether using a patient's own blood product (L-PRF) can improve bone healing after surgery for a persistent tooth-root infection. Fifteen adults with large infections around the tooth root were treated and followed for 12 months. The goal was to see if adding L-PRF to standard surgery leads to better bone regrowth and fewer symptoms like pain or swelling.
