Description:
The use of platelet concentrates has had a long-history of use in various fields of medicine as an autologous source of growth factors fabricated utilizing centrifugation of blood under various conditions. Over the past 10 years\ , platelet rich fibrin (PRF) has seen a steady increase in utilization for a variety of medical and dental procedures due to its lack of anti-coagul ation factors favoring fibrin clot formation and faster wound healing. Thi s talk aims to highlight the recent advancements made with respect to the newest formulations of platelet concentrates including recent developments in horizontal centrifugation. Thereafter\, the Bio-Heat technology will b e presented as a way to completely replace collagen membranes in dentistry owing to the ability to extend the working properties of PRF from 2-3 wee ks to 4-6 months. Lastly\, new clinical applications and uses of PRF will be presented in implant dentistry\, periodontology and in facial esthetics (Bio-Fillers using PRF).
Objectives:
- Op timization of protocols for any centrifugation device
- Update on Bi o-Heat technology and the ability to extend the working properties of PRF from 2-3 weeks to 4-6 months
- Launch of the Bio-Cool technology
- New uses of PRF in implant dentistry and Facial Esthetics
