Description
Bone regeneration is often needed prior to dental implant treatment due to the lack of adequate quantity and quality after infectious diseases. The greatest regenerative power can be obtained with autologous tissue, primarily the bone alive, taken from the same site or adjacent sites, up to the use centrifugation of blood with the selection of the parts with the greatest potential regenerative. In fact, various techniques and technologies were chronologically successive to cope with an ever better preparation of these concentrates of blood. Our aim is to know these advances and discuss the ways in which platelet concentrates may provide such unexpected beneficial therapeutic effects. Most of the growth factors derived from autologous blood is released upon platelet activation, and their clinical use has been popularized with Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) & its advancements namely A-PRF & i-PRF, Concentrated Growth Factors (CGF), Sticky Bone Concept etc. It is time to use this ‘blood’ in different ways to achieve regenerative potentials in the field of implant dentistry.
Upon completion of this presentation, participants should be able to: 1) describe the various blood products used in implant dentistry; 2) explain the applicaiton of blood and its products in implant dentistry; 3) describe the use of hard and soft tissue regeneration with these blood derivatives; and 4) recognize the biological factors for long-term implant success.
