Tissue Talks Series:

PRF in Clinical Practice:

Indications, Protocols, and Outcomes 

Course Description: 

This course provides a practical introduction to Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapy, reviewing the biologic rationale, preparation protocols, and evidence-based clinical benefits. Emphasis is placed on real-world application, including appropriate indications, case selection, and realistic treatment outcomes based on current literature and clinical experience. Designed for clinicians seeking a clear conceptual and clinical foundation, participants will leave with knowledge they can immediately incorporate into daily practice

Objectives: 

  • Define Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) and explain the biologic rationale for using autologous blood concentrates in regenerative dental therapy.
  • Differentiate between PRF types and select appropriate preparation protocols, including tube selection, centrifugation parameters, handling, and timing.
  • Identify appropriate clinical indications, limitations, and common technique errors, and determine when PRF use is beneficial versus when it may be of limited value based on current evidence.
  • Apply PRF in clinical scenarios by selecting membrane or plug applications and evaluating expected healing and regenerative outcomes.
