Description

Favorable wound healing has always been a major quest in dental and medical surgery. It is a concern in healthy as well as compromised patients. In an effort to improve and accelerate healing of both hard and soft tissues, substitutes including growth factors, biomaterials and membranes have been traditionally used. Recent research clearly indicates that L-PRF (Leukocyte -Platelet Rich Fibrin) significantly enhances wound healing in both soft and hard tissues. Evidence now supports the assertion that this has the potential to replace the above-mentioned substitutes in many situations.

Educational Objectives

  • Understand the science-based evidence for the different applications of L-PRF
  • Prepare and utilize L-PRF according to specific guidelines to achieve predictable results.
  • Select the adequate combination when using different biomaterials with L-PRF.
