Patient number (age/range)Disease typeInterventionFollow-upOutcomeReference

1 (61 years)Bony defect within the mandibleSolid A-PRF and liquid I-PRF together with an individualized 3D planned titanium mesh8 mNew bone originated from the residual bone on histological analysis, while oral function complete rehabilitation and restoration[98]

1 (36 years)IBDA-PRF and I-PRF, which were mixed with Bio-Oss and packed onto the 3D replica15 mSignificant radiographic 3D alveolar bone fill[99]

18 (42−69 years)Atrophy of maxillary posterior edentulous areasT-PRF or allografts6 mBone formation after 6 months of allografts was achieved in the T-PRF group at only 4 months radiologically and histologically[101]

38 (20−55 years)IBD (90 sites)PRF or T-PRF9 mNo statistically significant difference in defect depth reduction[102]
