Abstract
Background: The success of implants is associated first with their osseointegration, and later on with their survival rate. In recent years, many efforts have been exerted to develop implant design, geometry, materials and techniques to enhance the osseointegration process and also to increase the success rate of implant procedures. Advanced techniques, like leukocyte and L-PRF and LLLT, have been developed to enhance the osseointegration around dental implants. Aim of the study: This study aims at: 1- Evaluating the bone osseointegration process around dental implants after using advanced implant techniques like the application of LLLT and L-PRF which has become well-accepted adjuvant tools to enhance the osseointegration process. 2- Comparing between the various advanced techniques in dental implant procedures to figure out which technique will achieve the best results. Methods: The study was conducted on a random sample of 40 male patients. 40 dental implants were placed in the posterior areas of the lower jaws of the patients, with one implant for each patient. Patients were divided randomly into 4 groups, with 10 patients in each group; Groups; A: Control, B: Treated with Diode Low Level Laser (A laser device class IIIB, Gallium-Aluminum- Arsenide Diode laser that emits wavelength of 808 nm), C: Treated with 92 Growth Factor (L-PRF) and D: Combined application of both (LLLT+LPRF). They were assessed clinically and radiographically using CBCT at the baseline of 1 week after the implant insertion (the day of suture removal), followed by another one after 6 weeks from implant insertion, and by another one after 12 weeks from the implant insertion, to evaluate the RBD around each implant.
