Official Title: Effect of Autologous Platelet Rich Fibrin In Human Mandibular Molar Grade II Furcation Defects- A Clinical and Radiological Study

Brief Summary: Background: Furcation is the bifurcation or trifurcation of a multirooted tooth. It is an area of complex anatomic morphology difficult to debride by routine periodontal instrumentation. Multiple approaches have been used in an effort to treat the furcation Choukroun's platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a second generation platelet concentrate has biochemical components which have well known synergetic effects on healing processes. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in the treatment of mandibular molar Grade 2 furcation defects in comparison to allograft and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membrane.
