Use of Platelet‐Rich Fibrin (PRF) on Palatal Wound Healing: A Narrative Review With Clinical Recommendations

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Based on the available evidence, the application of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) following free gingival graft (FGG) and subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvesting appears to be a promising approach for enhancing wound healing, minimizing postoperative complications, and reducing analgesic consumption. ABSTRACT This clinical narrative review

Patient‐reported outcome measures and health economics in regenerative periodontal therapy: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding patient responses to periodontal regeneration is crucial. This systematic review and meta‐analysis addressed two key questions: (a) the impact of periodontal regeneration on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) for intrabony and furcation involvement and (b) the cost‐effectiveness of periodontal regeneration for treating ...

Analgesic effects of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF): A systematic review

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), a second‐generation autologous platelet concentrate, has gained significant interest for its anti‐inflammatory and regenerative characteristics. While its role in tissue healing is well‐recognized, the analgesic potential of PRF remains under‐investigated.
