This Advanced Program in Platelet Rich Fibrin is designed to provide clinicians with thorough knowledge on when to utilize PRF in Regenerative Dentistry. Its content is derived from Dr. Richard Miron’s best-selling textbook titled: “Understanding Platelet Rich Fibrin”. This course provides the evidence-base decision-making process for those that wish to maximize either bone or periodontal regeneration.
This hands-on course will cover all the new advancements made with respect to the newest formulations of platelet concentrates. These will cover how to make custom-shaped PRF grafts, how to better concentrate liquid-PRF and will provide a better understanding for optimization of the protocols utilized in every day dental practice.
Thereafter, the Bio-Heat technology will be presented. This will cover the heating steps necessary to extend the working properties of PRF from a fast-resorbing 2-3 week membrane towards a membrane that lasts 4-6 months. Various protocols will be demonstrated whereby clinicians will learn how to make an extended-PRF membrane that lasts 4-6 months, as well as how to make a novel sticky bone that contains an outer e-PRF membrane that may be utilized for ridge augmentation procedures.
