Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) is a fibrin matrix in which platelet cytokines, growth factors and cells are trapped and may be released after a certain time and that can serve as a resorbable membrane. In the present review article, the evolution, preparation of PRF has been described. Autologous PRF is considered to be a healing biomaterial, which has its numerous applications in various disciplines of dentistry.
