The purpose of this research is to assess the efficacy of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) in the regeneration of periodontal tissues in patients suffering from periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, which can eventually result in the loss of teeth if left untreated. Conventional periodontal treatment can control the infection and halt the progression of the disease but cannot reverse the loss of the supporting structures. Platelet-Rich Fibrin is a biologic material derived from a small amount of the patient's own blood. It has growth factors that can potentially enhance healing and facilitate the regeneration of bone and soft tissues. In this randomized controlled clinical trial, patients will be randomly assigned to either conventional periodontal surgical treatment or conventional treatment along with PRF. Over a predetermined follow-up period, clinical measurements like gum pocket depth, attachment levels, and radiographic bone changes will be assessed to see if PRF offers any extra advantages in tissue healing and regeneration. The results of this study could improve long-term oral health outcomes and periodontal disease treatment approaches.
