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. The searches were limited to articles in English language
and articles describing platelet concentrates and its relation to periodontal regeneration were collected and
used to prepare a concise review.
