PRF Dental Course with Joseph Choukroun
Founder of Platelet Rich Fibrin Techniques
25-26TH MARCH 2022, LONDON
PRF application in Dental Implantology, Oral Surgery, Bone Augmentation.
LECTURE & HANDS-ON
Two-day PRF course
£899
Delegates will learn both theoretical and practical skills required to start utilising PRF in Dental Implantology, Oral Surgery and Bone Augmentation. Gain practical knowledge on blood collection, using the Choukroun PRF centrifuge system to create PRF membranes, plugs, sticky bone for predictable soft tissue and bone augmentation and confidently implement these techniques into your daily practice.
What is PRF – Platelet Rich Fibrin?
PRF is a patient blood-derived living biomaterial, that is rich in platelets, growth factors and cytokines which are the key factors for tissue regeneration, healing, stimulation of bone growth and new blood vessel formation.
PRF provides a collection of immune cells embedded in a meshwork of cross linked fibrin filled with growth factors.
It contains approximately 10 times more platelet concentration than normal blood, therefore having great healing and regenerative properties. PRF is easy to prepare at chair side and is very cost effective.
Unlike PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), PRF is prepared without using anticoagulants or artificial additives being completely natural but more effective.
Who is this course for?
This course is for dentists who aim to increase their surgical success by
- predictably accelerating wound and tissue healing
- stimulating bone and soft tissue regeneration
- promoting new blood vessel formation with PRF prepared easily at chair side at a low cost
- learning biological concepts and numerous clinical tips and tricks on successful bone and soft tissue augmentation
Extensive practical hands-on session covers:
- Quick and easy blood drawing
- using the Choukroun PRF centrifuge machine
- PRF membranes, plugs, liquid PRF, Sticky Bone preparation
- NEW and updated protocols. PomPac, PomCol to achieve larger than ever clots and liquid PRF
- specific suture protocol hands-on to increase keratinised tissue volume and to avoid tension
- soft brushing technique to extend the flap while avoiding oxidation
What will you learn beyond PRF
- Biological factors for long term stability of bone and soft tissue with an overall approach to Dental Implantology
- Osteoimmunology: how the immune system controls osseointegration
- Impact of oxidative stress on bone formation and on longevity of dental implants. Bone resorption, Bone metabolism
- Peri-implantitis prevention and treatment, marginal bone loss
- Pain management in oral surgery: improving the quality and duration of local anaesthesia
- Pharmacology in oral surgery. Prevent discomfort, infection and allergic reactions
