Some major contraindications for the immediate implant are acute periodontitis and active infection. We present the case of a 51-year-old female patient with the highest grade and stage periodontitis treated with advanced platelet-rich fibrin-enriched zirconia implants and with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). In particular, HBOT before and after implantation promoted bone regeneration and implant integration, also providing an antiseptic effect. After six months, the implants were well established and fully healed from periodontal disease within 14 months. Further research could confirm a new indication for HBOT in treating periodontitis and dental implantation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18020413","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,7]],"date-time":"2021-01-07T02:33:29Z","timestamp":1609986809000},"page":"413","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and A-PRF Pre-Treated Implants in Severe Periodontitis: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1155-0628","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tommaso Antonio","family":"Giacon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Environmental and Respiratory Physiology, University of Padova, Via Marzolo 3, 35131 Padova, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Franco","family":"Giancola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinica Europea Implantologia Ceramica, Domus Medica, 47890 Citt\u00e0 di San Marino, San Marino"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7556-6928","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Matteo","family":"Paganini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Environmental and Respiratory Physiology, University of Padova, Via Marzolo 3, 35131 Padova, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cesare","family":"Tiengo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinic of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Padova University Hospital, 35128 Padova, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Enrico M.","family":"Camporesi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"TeamHealth Anesthesia, 1 Tampa General Circle, Tampa, FL 33606, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6595-7944","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gerardo","family":"Bosco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biomedical Sciences, Environmental and Respiratory Physiology, University of Padova, Via Marzolo 3, 35131 Padova, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"247","article-title":"Mechanisms of action of hyperbaric oxygen therapy","volume":"41","author":"Camporesi","year":"2014","journal-title":"Undersea Hyperb.
