T-prf Versus T-prf and Low-level Laser Stimulation on Bone Healing at Posterior Mandibular Fractures

Egypt14 participantsStarted 2024-03-30

Plain-language summary

Different types of grafting substances have been used in the recent decade to accelerate bone healing at large bony facial defects. PRF was one of the gold standard materials to be used until it was replaced by its successor T-PRF due to the PRF hazards of preparation. However, T-PRF- still can't stand alone in full bone enhancement procedure. Therefore, the combination with another bone bio-modulation technique, like Low-level Laser Therapy, is a must to approach the full advantage of bone healing. Aim: To compare between the effect of using T-PRF versus T-PRF with Low Level Laser stimulation on bone healing at posterior mandibular fractures
