Abstract :
Fibrin-rich plasma is a material that is easy to make, requires only the patient's blood, thus nullifies the chances of contamination and reduces the risk of infection. Its aspects of hemostasis and support of the immune system contribute to its satisfactory result. L-PRF has wide applicability, from dentistry to medicine, with excellent results in short and medium terms. Several studies have shown safety in its use for maxillofacial application. This study aims to make a brief review of the literature in the last 15 years regarding the use of L-PRF and its applicability in dentistry in general.
