Brief Summary
|
There are studies evaluating
efficiency of L-PRF in periodontal regeneration in intrabony defects .
There are no particular studies till date
which compared the regenerative potential of Melatonin V/S LPRF in intrabony defects caused due to
periodontitis.
This
study is done to observe the amount of bone fill obtained when 1% melatonin is
used to treat intrabony periodontal defects.
The aim
of the present study is to compare
and evaluate the regeneration of bone by using 1% Melatonin against L-PRF in periodontal intrabony defects using clinical and
radiographic parameters |
