OBJECTIVES: To explore the bone regeneration effect of different forms of concentrated growth factor (CGF) when combined with deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) for simultaneous implant-guided bone regeneration (GBR) and its impact on postoperative adverse reactions. METHODS: Fifty-seven patients who underwent simultaneous implant GBR were selected for the study and divided into three groups. The study involved three groups: the gel phase concentrated growth factor (GPCGF) group, which used GPCGF-DBBM mixture
the liquid phase concentrated growth factor (LPCGF) group, which used LPCGF-DBBM mixture
and the control group, which used DBBM alone. The thickness of the buccal lateral bones was measured using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), and patients were asked to complete questionnaires to assess primary adverse reactions during the first week after surgery. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Tukey test, and Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: The buccal lateral bone thickness in the GPCGF, LPCGF, and control groups decreased significantly at 6 months post-surgery compared to immediately after surgery. The change of bone thickness in the GPCGF group was lower than that in the control group (p <
0.01), and that in the LPCGF group did not differ from that in the control group (p >
0.05). During the postoperative week, statistically significant differences could be observed in bleeding, mouth opening, chewing, sleeping, speaking, daily routine, and pain (p <
0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Compared to the DBBM applied alone, the GPCGF-DBBM mixture has more positive implications for reducing bone resorption, promoting bone reconstruction and relieving certain postoperative adverse effects in dental implants with simultaneous GBR. The GPCGF-DBBM mixture was superior to the LPCGF-DBBM mixture in alleviating adverse effects in terms of bleeding and speaking after GBR.
