- Abstract: Platelet concentrates are derivatives of blood that aid in haemostasis and wound healing after periodontal regenerative procedures. Its ability to act as a natural scaffold of growth factors has gained significance in many surgical procedures. This narrative review discusses the different platelet concentrates, their centrifugation protocols, advantages and disadvantages and their application in periodontal regenerative procedures. An electronic search of PubMed or MEDLINE was conducted for relevant material from the published literature up to 2020. The key words looked for were “Platelet concentrates, Platelet rich plasma, Platelet rich fibrin and periodontal regeneration.” We have used the filters comparative human studies, animal studies, randomized controlled trials, case reports and systematic reviews.
