Advanced PRF Protocols
Evaluate platelet-rich fibrin preparation methods and clinical applications so you can discuss protocol selection and patient candidacy with confidence.
What this track covers
This track covers platelet-rich fibrin biology and preparation technique, including how L-PRF, A-PRF, and i-PRF differ in centrifugation approach and intended use. It also addresses clinical applications across aesthetic, orthopedic, and dental settings, and how PRF is combined with other regenerative approaches.
What you will practice
- Distinguish L-PRF, A-PRF, and i-PRF by preparation approach and intended clinical use
- Identify patient factors that affect candidacy for PRF-based treatment
- Compare PRF and PRP in terms of composition and growth factor release
- Recognize appropriate applications of PRF across aesthetic, orthopedic, and dental contexts
- Evaluate how PRF is combined with other regenerative modalities and the rationale for sequencing
Simulator scenario
A patient presents for consultation about a PRF-based regenerative option, and the clinician must gather relevant history and explain appropriate candidacy considerations.
Board question topics
- PRF vs PRP composition and mechanism
- Preparation protocol differences (L-PRF, A-PRF, i-PRF)
- Patient selection and contraindication considerations
- Applications of PRF across specialties
