Uso de fibrina rica em plaquetas e leucócitos (L-PRF) na preservação alveolar pós-exodontia: revisão de literatura

Abstract

Exodontics is a surgical procedure widely performed in clinical practice by dental surgeons, followed by many steps until its healing. With the advances in the health area, blood concentrates were created that currently collaborate in the tissue repair process in several areas of medicine and dentistry. Platelet and leukocyte-rich fibrin (L-PRF) is a second generation type of concentrate, developed by Choukroun, used mainly to accelerate the alveolar healing process. The present work aims to evaluate the use of Fibrin Rich in Platelets and Leukocytes (L-PRF) on alveolar repair after extraction. To carry out the present work, a literature review was carried out, using the databases, including Google Scholar, MEDLINE (Pubmed), Scielo. The use of (L-PRF) as an alveolar filler material has shown that it allows the dimensional preservation of the bone walls of the alveoli after extraction and soft tissue, helps in the healing process and in the postoperative period in relation to edema and painful symptoms
