To study the effect of platelet-rich plasma concentrate on marginal bone loss and bone mineral density in immediate implant placement through CBCT.
12 subjects were equally categorized into two groups. Group, I was the control group; whereas, the subjects in Group II received Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. All subjects were given a standard treatment with single implant system. Inserted implants were analyzed through Cone Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT). Records were registered at the baseline, at 12th week before functional loading and 26th week after functional loading.

PRP was prepared using patient's blood and mixed with saline or mixture of calcium chloride and thrombin to form a liquid solution; in order to inject at the surgical site after placement of implant.
Blood was withdrawn from antecubital vein and mixed with anticoagulant. Blood sample was then centrifuged to obtain platelet rich plasma which was injected at surgical site after implant placement.
