Dr. Dani Weichholz is thrilled to announce the addition of a new dental technology called PRF.
Why is this so exciting? Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) promotes faster healing and recovery, reduced pain, less swelling and promotes the growth of new bone.
The patient’s blood is drawn right before the procedure. The blood is then placed in a machine that separates the blood to isolate the parts of the blood that contain a high concentration of platelets, growth factors, and other healing agents. This is then used in the dental procedure to improve healing and reduce the risk of complications.
6 Reasons to have treatment with Platelet-Rich Fibrin:
- Faster implant healing and Wisdom tooth removal recovery. Platelet-rich fibrin promotes the body’s natural healing process and can help tissues heal faster after dental procedures.
- Reduced inflammation and pain. The growth factors in PRF can help reduce inflammation and swelling after dental procedures, reducing pain and discomfort.
- Improved quality of bone regrowth. Platelet-rich fibrin can stimulate the growth of new bone tissue, which can be beneficial for patients who need bone grafts or who have bone loss due to periodontal disease.
- Increased bone grafting success in difficult surgical sites such as root canal, implants, and sinus lift grafts.
- Reduced risk of infection: Platelet-rich fibrin contains antimicrobial agents that can help reduce the risk of infection after dental procedures.
- Natural and safe: Because PRF is derived from the patient’s own blood; it is a natural and safe treatment option that carries little risk of allergic reactions or other adverse effects.
