Effect of L-PRF and A-PRF in Ridge Preservation

"Platelet concentrates are produced from a small peripheral blood sample, which is immediately centrifuged without any anticoagulant. Coagulation starts during the centrifugation, and three layers are obtained: red blood corpuscles (RBCs) at the bottom of the tube, platelet-poor plasma (PPP) on the top and an intermediate layer called buffy coat where most platelets and leucocytes are concentrated. L-PRF has potential advantages, namely: it creates a bioactive construct that stimulates the local environment for differentiation and proliferation of stem and progenitor cells and it acts as an immune regulation node with inflammation control abilities, such as slow continuous release of growth factors over a period of 7-14 days."
