Abstract: Plasma-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a novel regenerative approach in dentistry, particularly for the treatment of periapical lesions. This study evaluates the effectiveness of PRF combined with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) in non-surgical endodontic treatment. A clinical trial was conducted involving 35 patients with diagnosed periapical lesions, monitored over six months using Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). The results showed a significant healing rate, with 60% of cases achieving complete lesion resolution. The study concludes that PRF, when combined with MTA, is an effective treatment for periapical bone lesions, highlighting the importance of CBCT follow-ups for long-term assessment.
