Abstract
Long-standing periapical and periodontal lesions present a common biological sequence, progressive resorption and loss of alveolar bone, around the affected tooth. In recent years there has been an enormous evolution in the key role that platelets play, in tissue regeneration techniques, facilitating, among other actions, the healing of soft tissues and consolidating hard tissues, among other means, thanks to the release of cytokines and growth factors, over an extended period of time. Fibrin rich in platelets and leukocytes is a second generation platelet concentrate, which we obtain without additives directly from the patient's blood with the aim of establishing a fibrin mesh that serves as an anchor to all the substances involved in the tissue regeneration process.
