All of the patients were divided into two groups according to random method, among which 35 patients who underwent cystectomy alone were recorded as group A, which served as blank control; 35 patients who underwent cystectomy and PRF combined with BIO-GENE artificial bone meal repaired bone defects during the same period were recorded as group B. 3D Slicer 5.0.3 software was used to reconstruct Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) after operation. In this study, the preoperative and postoperative CBCT data of the patients were analyzed using 3D Slicer 5.0.3 software in DICOM format to calculate the cleft volume before surgery and the newly formed bone volume after surgery. The osteogenesis rate was measured based on these calculations.The bone formation percentage in the bone defect area was recorded at 6 months, and the clinical curative effects of the two groups were compared.Results: After 6 months of surgery, the patients showed varying degrees of restoration in the jaw cyst area.The osteogenesis rate at 6 months in group A was 76.06± 13.38%, while group B had a rate of 92.87± 5.72%.The CBCT values in group B were higher than those in group A at 6 months post-surgery (P< 0.05), t=− 6.84.Group A and Group B showed a statistically significant difference.Conclusion: Compared with simple cystectomy, PRF combined with BIO-GENE artificial bone powder has a better effect on the speed of bone repair after cystectomy within 6 months and provides more favorable effects for the repair of postoperative dentition defects, and provides support to repair teeth after defects such as dental implants.Keywords: PRF, bone transplantation, jaw cysts, bone regeneration
