RESUMO
This study assessed the conective tissue response to periodontitis-affected root surface after treatment with PDGF-BB, comparing this therapy with root planning and surface demineralization with citric acid. After surface therapy all the rats and collected 3,7 and 15 days after implantation. Histologic and morphometric analysis included counts of cell densities and evaluation of the rapairing tissue adjacent to specimens. It was concluded that root specimen pathogenicity was reduced by citric acid demineralization. It seems that PDGF-BB stimulated connective tissue repair and fiber deposition during the first week
