A variety of treatment modalities have been proposed to achieve it. Plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) is a concentrated suspension of growth factors that promotes restoration of lost periodontal tissues. The objective of the present study is to assess the effect of PRGF associated with guided tissue regeneration (GTR) versus GTR only in the treatment of intrabony defects (IBDs) in patients with chronic periodontitis (CP).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> Patients with CP (n = 14) with 42 contralateral 2\u2010 and 3\u2010walled defects were randomly assigned to test (PRGF+GTR) and control (GTR alone) treatment groups. Clinical and radiographic assessments performed at baseline and after 6 months were: 1) gingival index (GI), 2) probing depth (PD), 3) clinical attachment level (CAL), 4) radiologic defect depth, and 5) bone fill.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Comparison of parameters measured at baseline and after 6 months showed mean PD reduction of 3.37 \u00b1 1.62 mm in the control group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001) and 4.13 \u00b1 1.59 mm in the test group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001). There was a significant difference in mean change in CAL (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001) in the control group (5.42 \u00b1 1.99) and the test group (5.99 \u00b1 1.77). Mean change in GI was 1.89 \u00b1 0.32 and 1.68 \u00b1 0.58 in the control group and test group, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.001). When compared between groups, clinical parameters did not show any statistically significant variations. Mean radiographic bone fill was 1.06 \u00b1 0.81 and 1.0 \u00b1 0.97 in the control group and test group, respectively. However, the difference was not statistically significant.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> PRGF with GTR, as well as GTR alone, was effective in improving clinical and radiographic parameters of patients with CP at the 6\u2010month follow\u2010up. There was no additive effect of PRGF when used along with GTR in the treatment of IBDs in patients with CP in terms of both clinical and radiologic outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2017.160824","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,5]],"date-time":"2017-05-05T11:35:54Z","timestamp":1493984154000},"page":"839-845","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Additive
