This book will guide clinicians to achieve great results with L-PRF. It starts with basic science chapters on tissue regeneration, blood centrifugation, and an explanation of the biologic power of platelet concentrates. However, the true value of this book lies in an evidence-based evaluation of the benefits of L-PRF in periodontal and maxillofacial surgery, as well as in chronic wound therapy. For each treatment, a step-by-step approach has been created by experienced clinicians. The most crucial steps are explained in 18 videos via augmented reality.

Prof Marc Quirynen graduated as a dentist in 1980 from the Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium, where he went on to complete training in periodontology and obtain his PhD. In 1990, he was appointed as a professor at Catholic University and is currently Chairman of the Department of Periodontology. His research focuses on simplification and optimization of periodontal therapy, and over the past decade, he has explored platelet concentrates in soft and hard tissue regeneration. Prof Quirynen has published over 450 papers in international peer-reviewed journals and serves on several editorial boards, including for the Journal of Clinical Periodontology and Clinical Oral implants Research. His most inspiring lectures deal with the clinical benefits of L-PRF and the prevention of peri-implantitis.

Prof Nelson R. Pinto is Professor in the Department of Periodontology and Implantology at Universidad de Los Andes in Santiago, Chile, and Founder of the Research Center for Regenerative Medicine and Tissue Engineering. He is visiting faculty in the Department of Periodontology at Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium, and in the Advanced Education Program in Implant Dentistry at Loma Linda University in California. His main accomplishment is the development of Natural Guided Regeneration Therapy (NGRT), and his research in this area was recognized in 2012 by the World Union of Wound Healing Societies (WUWHS) and in 2016 with the Journal of Wound Care & WUWHS Award for Best Contribution to Clinical Research for 2012 to 2016. In 2018, he received the Punyaarjan Humanitarian Service Award for his professional dedication to chronic wound healing and helping change patients’ lives through NGRT.
