Evaluation of the Adjunctive Benefits of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Subantral Sinus Augmentation

Subantral sinus augmentation is often necessary to permit placement of endosseous implants. Recent efforts to improve wound healing have focused on autogenous sources of bioactive mediators, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which offer the potential to enhance the biological activity of bone replacement grafts. The purpose of this randomized, single-blinded, controlled study was to compare bone formation after subantral maxillary sinus...
