Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
Tooth loss and often the accompanying bone loss can create difficulties in stabilizing dental implants. The solution is the Platelet Rich Fibrin Therapy that promotes healing and bone growth.
Platelet Rich Fibrin is a by-product of blood that is exceptionally rich in platelets. The blood platelets perform several essential functions in the body, including blood clot formation and the release of growth factors that help to heal wounds. These growth factors stimulate the stem cells to produce new host tissue as quickly as possible, which is why platelet rich fibrin is so effective in the post-treatment healing process.
Platelet Rich Fibrin Process
We will first determine if you are a candidate for PRF treatment. Patients with blood clotting disorders will be unable to take advantage of this treatment. A small (about 2 oz) sample of your blood will be collected during a scheduled outpatient treatment. The blood will be placed into a centrifuge to separate the plasma and fibrin from the red blood cells. The centrifuge concentrates the platelets, fibrin and white blood cells which contain a growth factor called Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF).
When the surgical procedure begins the PRF will be applied to the surgical area in a high concentration. This will expedite your healing and decrease the amount of discomfort following the surgery.
