Does PRF replace bone grafting?

Usually not. PRF is commonly used as an adjunct to, not a replacement for, grafting when grafting is indicated.

It is autologous, meaning it comes from your own blood, which reduces concerns related to donor materials.

Will everyone benefit from PRF?

Not every case requires PRF. Use depends on procedure type and surgeon judgment.

Bone Graft & Bone Augmentation / Complex Surgical Tooth Extraction / Dental Implants

PRF is an autologous biologic material made from a small sample of your own blood, processed at the time of surgery.

It forms a fibrin matrix containing platelets and growth factors that may support soft tissue and bone healing.

PRF is typically used as an adjunct, not a standalone replacement for sound surgical technique and case planning.

A blood sample is centrifuged to produce PRF membranes or plugs during the procedure visit.

PRF may be placed in extraction sites, grafted regions, or around surgical flaps based on clinical indication.

Because PRF is autologous, no donor-site or foreign biologic harvesting is required.

No. They are related platelet concentrates but differ in preparation method and final matrix characteristics.
