The Effect of Leukocyte and Platelet-rich Fibrin With Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy in Aggressive Periodontitis

Sponsor: Kafrelsheikh University

Summary

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is associated with photosensitizing agents which promote the generation of free radicals and singlet oxygen, which are cytotoxic to certain bacteria. Leukocyte and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) has been used extensively in the treatment of intrabony defects and achieved excellent results. It acts as an immune regulation node with inflammation control abilities, including a slow continuous release of growth factors which stimulates periodontal regeneration. The aim of this study is to evaluate the adjunctive effects of aPDT with and without L-PRF in aggressive periodontitis patients.
