Abstract

The utilization of Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is becoming increasingly prevalent in oral surgery and implantology. Blood is often described as the body’s health mirror, and it may present a unique opportunity for the dental professional to detect potential blood disorders through the examination of PRF while in the tube. Though this approach is simple, up to our knowledge, it is novel, and yet to be explored.
