Description
Summary:Platelet concentrates, which are enriched with growth factors are well-known to boost the healing process and have started to be in trend and utilized clinically in periodontal surgical procedures. Its autologous nature provides an advantage to the patients as it reduces treatment cost and minimizes the risk of cross-infection.
