Objective: The present randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate clinically, radiographic, and histologically the efficacy of L-PRF in combination with FDBA either in a homogeneous mixture or using a layered technique in improving quantity and quality of new vital bone formation and alveolar ridge dimensional stability in comparison to LPRF alone for ridge preservation after tooth extraction. Materials and Methods: Twentythree patients successfully completed the study. They were randomized to receive either L-PRF/FDBA layered technique (LAY), L-PRF/FDBA homogeneous mixture (MIX), or L-PRF alone. After minimally traumatic tooth extraction, direct clinical assessment and a Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scan were …
