Effect of Autologous Fibrin Glue on Soft Tissue Healing After Periodontal Flap Surgery- A Clinically Designed Study

Abstract

Aim and Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous fibrin glue in periodontal flap closure. Here the objective is to assess it’s healing properties and tissue adhesion capability.

Materials and Methods: 30 patients of chronic periodontitis case were selected to conduct a clinical study involving advanced periodontal pocketing (=>5mm) and attachment loss (=>5mm) after non-surgical therapies. After fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria, open flap debridement was performed to provide direct access to root surfaces and underlying bone on selected site. Autologous fibrin glue was applied during flap closure. Simplified healing index and roll test was done at 1month and 3 months interval.

Results: Autologous fibrin glue demonstrated efficient hemostasis and enhanced tissue adhesion, improved patients comfort during the healing process. Statistical analysis report show significant p value of simplified index and roll test.

Conclusion: Autologous fibrin glue holds promising results in periodontal flap closure. Its use can enhance patient outcomes by reducing the discomfort post-operative and contribute to successful periodontal treatment.
