Abstract

New techniques based on non‐invasive approaches have been presented to maximize tissue preservation and reduce patient’s morbidity. A novel technique termed Microneedling has been used for soft tissue volumizing and regeneration. This therapy in combination with injectable platelet rich fibrin can increase the periodontal phenotype by growth factors activity. The aim of the study is to compare and evaluate the effect of Microneedling with I‐PRF and I‐PRF alone in periodontitis patients following non‐surgical periodontal therapy through clinical parameters. This is a randomized split‐mouth clinical study comparing, Microneedling + I‐PRF and I‐PRF alone in the treatment of attachment loss in chronic periodontitis patients. A total of 120 sites were selected with stage II periodontitis. After split mouth randomisation, test sites were administered with Microneedling followed by I‐PRF (n = 60) and contralateral sites were treated with I‐PRF (n = 60) alone respectively. demonstrated the mean pocket depth was observed to decrease in both the groups after the first and third month to 3.388±0.42 and 3.65±0.57 respectively in MN+I‐PRF group. Mean relative attachment loss decreased from 4.91±0.77 to 3.66±0.65 and 3.87±0.69 with statistically significant results. Periodontal phenotype had significantly improved with gain in gingival thickness of 0.6±0.31 mm and Keratinized tissue width gain of 0.8 mm at 3 month in test group with p‐value (<0.001). Microneedling and I‐PRF proves to be an excellent option for improving phenotype as it utilizes the platelet concentrates in a unique way to enhance periodontal wound healing.
