PRF Course Description:
This comprehensive, hands-on, multidisciplinary PRF course is designed for general dentists, pediatric dentists, periodontists, prosthodontists, endodontists, orthodontists, implantologists, oral surgeons, as well as licensed injectors, med spa owners, dermatologists, and cosmetologists seeking to integrate regenerative biologics into facial esthetics and clinical practice.
The course provides general dentists with practical, step-by-step instruction in safe and efficient phlebotomy for in-office blood collection, with direct clinical application to platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for facial esthetics and regenerative dental procedures.
Participants will learn how to properly draw a patient’s blood and follow established protocols for processing and utilizing PRF derived from centrifuged blood. Clinical applications include microneedling with PRF and facial injections, designed to enhance collagen production, improve skin quality, and support overall facial esthetics. These techniques allow clinicians to leverage the patient’s own biologics to promote natural regenerative responses in a controlled and predictable manner.
The course places strong emphasis on venous anatomy, proper equipment selection, patient preparation, and venipuncture technique, ensuring participants understand not only how to perform blood draws safely, but also how to integrate them efficiently into daily clinical workflows. Common challenges—such as missed veins, hematoma formation, and vasovagal responses—are reviewed in detail, along with proven strategies for complication prevention and management.
In addition, the course reviews foundational principles of dental exodontia, including proper instrumentation selection, extraction techniques, and patient safety considerations. These principles support predictable, atraumatic outcomes and reinforce the importance of sound surgical fundamentals when incorporating regenerative therapies into dental practice.
By the end of the course, participants will have the confidence, procedural knowledge, and practical skills necessary to perform reliable blood collection and apply PRF-based techniques in a dental setting, enhancing clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction.
PRF + Exosomes for Advanced Facial Rejuvenation
To complement the hands-on clinical training in this course, we’re pleased to include an educational video exploring one of the most advanced regenerative combinations in facial aesthetics: PRF + Exosomes for face and neck rejuvenation.

Understanding the Synergy: PRF + Exosomes
Combining Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) with exosomes creates a powerful, science-based regenerative approach to skin rejuvenation.
-
PRF delivers a natural concentration of growth factors derived from the patient’s own blood, supporting tissue repair and collagen stimulation
-
Exosomes act as cellular messengers that enhance communication between skin cells, promoting regeneration, repair, and improved skin quality
When used together, this advanced synergy helps improve:
-
Skin texture and tone
-
Fine lines and early signs of aging
-
Skin elasticity and firmness
-
Overall skin vitality and radiance
This regenerative approach is designed to enhance the skin’s natural healing process, making it an ideal adjunct to microneedling, injectables, and advanced facial aesthetic procedures.

Dr. Calilung, Stem Cells
Stem cells and their counterparts, exosomes, have become a part of dental practice. They are in a similar realm to PRP and PRF, but on a more profound scale. Stem cells are unique because they can become any type of cell, acting as both building blocks and repair mechanisms in the body. They may be purchased by an FDA “regulated” lab to treat dental patients for appropriate indications.
Please watch this one-hour introduction to stem cells and exosomes before the class to give you insight into the potential of live-birth, umbilical cord tissues to change patients’ lives for the better. Also, access and review the scholarly and peer-reviewed articles on Dr. Calilung’s website. This field of medicine has been emerging for years and is now at a point where it is accessible to the dental profession. This course delves deeper into indications, contraindications, patient selection, administration of the stem cells or exosomes, and patient (and doctor) post-treatment expectations.
Course Objectives:
Following this presentation, dentists will:
• Learn from research data and instructor experience, know which types of stem cell products will be most likely to provide the best outcome; what constitutes a favorable outcome
• Know which patients and health conditions are most likely to respond favorably to stem cell therapy and in approximately what period, and which are more resistant to therapy
• Know how much to give and how/where to administer it
• What does stem cell therapy cost
• Be aware of any potential adverse effects to treatment
• Why are there some detractors against this treatment modality

Dr. Karl Koerner, Oral Surgery
Many extractions look easy but can soon become difficult, time-consuming, and lead to complications. This course reviews the best techniques and instruments to remove “surgical” extractions easily and quickly while conserving bone–a requirement with the need for implants and more aesthetic bridges. His courses make exodontia more enjoyable and predictable so it can be performed with greater confidence and less stress. He also covers other topics related to the above, such as avoiding/managing surgical complications (bleeding, infection, maxillary sinus problems, excessive time for surgery, etc.), ridge grooming after extractions, biopsy, moderate third molar impactions, socket preservation, and incision and drainage.
Course Objectives:
Following this presentation, dentists will:
• More easily and quickly do “surgical” or difficult extractions that are common to general practice.
• Prevent and/or manage complications that can occur during oral
• surgery.
• More clearly recognize problem cases that may need referral.
• Have patients more pleased and satisfied with surgery in your office.
