CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS
periodontium, anchorage loss
The results of this study support the short-term acceleration and
anti-inflammatory effects of L-PRF on the rate of canine retraction, with less
anchorage loss and no deleterious effects on the periodontium. However,
long-term effects on the acceleration of canine retraction were not observed in
this study; therefore, based on the findings of this study, further well
designed randomized control studies in this regard are recommended.
