What Is Platelet-Rich Fibrin?
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a cutting-edge treatment used in dental care to promote faster healing and improve outcomes after oral surgery. At Sexton Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Drs. Sexton, Weiskopf, and Russ utilize PRF in procedures such as tooth extractions, dental implant placements, and bone grafting. PRF is derived from the patient's own blood and contains a high concentration of growth factors that enhance tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and accelerate the healing process. By incorporating PRF into their treatments, our team can provide our patients with an enhanced experience, quicker recovery times, and more successful surgical outcomes. For more information on PRF, contact our practice in Memphis, TN.
How Does Platelet-Rich Fibrin Work?
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) works by harnessing the natural healing properties of the patient's own blood to enhance recovery after dental procedures. During your dental procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn and processed to concentrate platelets and fibrin, which are rich in growth factors. This PRF is then applied to the surgical site, where it promotes tissue regeneration, reduces inflammation, and accelerates the healing process.
What Are the Benefits of Platelet-Rich Fibrin?
PRF offers several benefits that enhance healing and improve outcomes in dental procedures, including:
- Accelerates tissue regeneration and healing
- Reduces inflammation at the surgical site
- Improves the success rate of procedures like implants and grafts
- Uses the patient's own blood, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions
- Enhances overall recovery time and comfort
