Comparison of the Efficacy of I-Prf Impregnated Collagen and L-Prf on Healing After Impacted Third Molar Surgery

Fifty patients were included for the randomized, prospective, split mouth and single-blind study. Two groups were formed in the study. The lower right and lower left wisdom teeth of the patients with extraction indication for lower impacted wisdom teeth were included in separate groups. In the first group (on one side of the same patients), leukocyte platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF, 2700rpm,12 min) was obtained after lower impacted wisdom tooth surgery, applied into the socket and sutured. The other tooth of the patient was operated 5 weeks after the operation of the region included in the first group. In the second group (to the other side of the same patient), injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF, 700rpm, 3min) was obtained and 1\*2 cm type 1 collagen plug (ACE RCP(Resorbable Collagen Plug), Resorbable Collagen Plug, Collagen Matrix, Inc. Oakland, New Jersey, USA) was impregnated and applied into the socket as such. It was followed for 4 weeks. Both surgical sites were sutured with 4\\0 silk sutures (18mm, 3\\8 sharp, 75cm black suture). It was determined randomly which material would be used first on which side.
