Concentrated-Platelet Rich Fibrin & Osopia
Concentrated Platelet Rich Fibrin (C-PRF) is the latest generation of Regenerative Blood Concentrates directly from research by Dr. Rick Miron of Jupiter, Florida. Dr. Miron's ground breaking research has led to new protocols that are sweeping the world of Regenerative Medicine. Dr. Miron is the author of the most cited article of the year, 2024, in the number one Dental journal (Periodontology 2000) related to his work on Platelet Rich Fibrin.

I have had the privilege of training with Dr. Miron in Vancouver in 2022 and hands on instruction in Jupiter, Florida in the Advanced PRF Education in Facial Aesthetics at his clinic, in Dec 2023.
We are now using Dr. Miron's protocols for all our PRF treatments and I'm training dentists in my Vancouver Island PRF study club to use the same techniques.
Osopia is a synthetic Biphasic Calcium Phosphate (BCP) graft material manufactured using 3DI Surface technology. Its indicated for use in the specific treatment of extraction sockets and maxillary augmentation procedures.
Below is a YouTube link demonstrating the technique and some literature for those who maybe interested.
