    TLDR PRP shows promise for regenerating dental tissues.
    This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in regenerative endodontics, highlighting its role as a promising biomaterial for restoring oral tissues. PRP, derived from the patient's blood, is rich in bioactive molecules that aid in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and tissue repair. It acts as a biological scaffold and delivery system for regenerative mediators, enhancing tissue healing. The review covers the biological principles, preparation protocols, and clinical applications of PRP in dentistry, while also addressing challenges and inconsistencies in its use, and exploring future perspectives in oral and maxillofacial tissue engineering.
