Objective To introduce the application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in non-vascularised bone grafts (NVBG) of maxillofacial surgery and its potential mechanism in recent years.Methods The latest articles were extensively retrieved, and the potential mechanism for PRP promotes the osteogenesis was discussed. Results PRP promotes osteogenesis when applied to NVBG, and the cytokine included in platelet is thought to be the ingredient for PRP’s effect. Some scholar has already applied PRP in the restoration of maxillofacial bone defect andgot good results.
