Background: Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is recognized as a biocompatible and inexpensive biomaterial in regenerative dentistry with benefits of increased wound healing and bone regeneration. However, knowledge gaps among dental students may hinder its application and optimal use. The present study evaluated the awareness, knowledge, and attitudes towards PRF among dental students of Guilan University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 105 fifth- and sixth-year dental students in the 2023–2024 academic year. Data were gathered using a structured questionnaire, and statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, chi-square, and t-tests.
Results: Mean age of participants was 25.18 ± 1.70 years. PRF was familiar to only 39% of the students. 45.7% of participants identified PRF's usefulness in reducing post-operative pain, and 44.8% identified its usefulness in bone healing. Cost and safety were not clearly understood. There was a significant difference in knowledge scores when compared between academic years (p=0.016), which means that clinical exposure enhances familiarity.
Conclusion: The current study showed that dental students have limited knowledge of PRF, particularly in relation to its clinical application, cost, and safety. Due to high demand for additional studies, it is clear that there is a pressing need for educational courses to enhance students' knowledge and facilitate proper application of PRF in practice.
