As a general dentist at the Implant Center of Coral Gables, I've been focusing on dental implants and cosmetic dentistry for about four years. One of the innovative treatments we offer is Plasma Rich Fibrin (PRF) therapy, which significantly enhances the healing process for our patients. Today, I want to explain what PRF therapy is and how it can benefit you.

PRF stands for Plasma Rich Fibrin, a healing technology that leverages your own blood to accelerate recovery. Here’s how it works: we draw a small amount of your blood and place it in a centrifuge to separate the red and white blood cells. The key component here is the white blood cells, which contain cytokines, antibodies, and other proteins that are crucial for healing.

We use these powerful proteins in several ways. For example, if you're undergoing a tooth extraction or dental implant, we can mix these proteins with the bone to enhance and speed up the healing process. PRF is particularly effective in controlling inflammation, making it an added benefit to any surgical procedure in our practice.

This technique not only helps in faster recovery but also ensures that you experience less postoperative discomfort and quicker integration of dental implants or recovery from other dental surgeries.

If you're interested in learning more about PRF or have any other dental concerns, feel free to contact our office directly in Coral Gables or visit our website. We’re here to assist you with the latest in dental technology and ensure your treatment and recovery are as smooth and efficient as possible.
