Platelet-Rich Fibrin

Dentist in the Crossings

Dr. Nhora Ortega and Dr. Esteban Parada may use platelet-rich fibrin in Miami, Florida, for you to heal and recover quickly after major dental surgery. This is a safe treatment with many benefits to help you feel better and protected from future infections. Call us today at 305-662-2599 to schedule an appointment with our dentists here at SoFlo Implantology & Cosmetic Dentistry.

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is used to help you recover following oral surgery procedures, such as implant placement or wisdom teeth removal. It is a biocompatible treatment and is designed to work with your body to improve the healing process and help you recover more quickly.

Your blood contains four main ingredients: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma. The platelets in your blood are responsible for causing blood clotting and initiating the healing process, and they contain proteins and growth factors that are released to aid in healing and reduce inflammation. Platelet-rich fibrin is derived from your blood. When you receive PRF, our dentists will first draw a small amount of blood from your arm. This blood will then be spun in a centrifuge to create the PRF, which is yellow and gelatin-like in consistency. The PRF is then carefully applied to the surgical site, where it will work to increase your rate of healing, protect the site from infection, and enrich it with proteins and growth factors.

Benefits of PRF include:

  • Improved healing following surgical procedures
  • Reduced pain and swelling following your procedure
  • Higher quality of bone growth or healing and osseointegration
  • Decreased likelihood of dry tooth sockets
  • Increased early blood supply to tooth sockets after extraction
  • Improved chance of success in more difficult surgical sites
  • Greater overall chance of success in your treatment

For more information about PRF and to schedule your consultation with our dentists, call our office today.

The best of the best. Dr. Nhora and Esteban make me feel at home every time I visit them. I recently had a wisdom tooth removed and it was so well done I hardly had any swelling and felt I could go right back to work. I recommend Dr. Nhora and Esteban to everyone I know.
