Journal Title: Indian Journal of Dental Advancements - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
An autologous strong and flexible fibrin including enriched platelet which contains growth factors and cytokines is called platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). PRF can be made very simply and requires no artificial materials unlike plateletrich plasma. While PRF is remodelled and released in the tissue, this includes cell growth, vascularization, collagen synthesis, osteoblast differentiation, and an anti-inflammatory reaction. PRF can stimulate regeneration of bone and soft tissue. PRF is used in the preservation of sockets, guided bone grafts, sinus lifts, dressing, and periodontal treatment.
