Course Description:
The art and science of autologous socket grafting is becoming more popular in dentistry as dentists become better educated and trained in this procedure. The simplicity of using readily available blood derivatives of centrifuged venous blood has enhanced the clinical outcomes of regenerating tissues while reducing the need for costly biologics such as allograft and membrane materials.
In this course, we will review the science, clinical applications, and handling techniques/preparation of the Leukocyte-Platelet Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) towards various clinical uses, primarily socket regeneration. Venipuncture technique will be presented and demonstrated during the lecture in preparation for the hands-on portion, where attendees (FL licensed dentists) will volunteer to perform venipuncture on attendees and volunteer to allow venipuncture on themselves. A Licensed RN and experienced licensed FL dentists will assist with such procedures. The samples of blood will be collected in vials for use with centrifugation followed by handling techniques to simulate the clinical preparation just prior to clinical use. We will discuss best practices for the disposal of biological waste as well.
Audience: Dentist, Staff
