AB - Clinical use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) have incresead in dental procedures and represents a promising
alternative in the regeneration of soft and hard tissues, whether associated with biomaterials or alone. PRF
presentation forms in membrane, plug or sticky bone are discussed. Versatility, biological security of
autologous material, simplicity, cost-effectiveness and maleability are attractive factors to the multivariate
use of PRF in-office. However, more randomized clinical trials protocol standardization are required to
obtain reproducible results. The choice of most indicated therapeutic modality of PRF applied to alveolar
ridge preservation should be made based on evidence to ensure a good clinical results in-office and patient
satisfaction.
