L-PRF
L-PRF, or Leukocyte-Platelet Rich Fibrin, is a special substance made from a patient’s own blood. Here’s how it’s made: First, we draw a small amount of blood from the patient. Then, we use a machine called a centrifuge to separate the different parts of the blood. This process gives us a mixture that’s rich in platelets and white blood cells, along with a sticky material called fibrin.
This L-PRF mixture is really useful in dentistry, oral surgery, and periodontics. We use it to help wounds heal faster, speed up the regrowth of tissues, and make bone grafting procedures more effective. It’s especially handy for improving the success of dental implants. People like L-PRF because it’s made from their own blood, it’s easy to prepare, and it releases special substances that help tissues heal and grow back stronger.
