PLATELET RICH FIBRIN (PRF)
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF), also known as L-PRF, is derived from one of the families of platelet concentrates found in your blood.
L-PRF is a key factor in tissue repair and faster healing, reduced patient inflammation, discomfort, and chances of infection. It is surgically applied to the area for the following procedures:
- Implant surgery
- Bone grafting
- Tooth extractions
- Operations on the sinus
- Soft tissue surgeries
PRP vs. PRF
How does it work?
By extracting blood from the patient we stimulate the creation of fibrin, which is later centrifuged, separated and used to create L-PRF. This matrix formed can then be used for bone grafting and applied to the surgical site. The growth factors found in the L-PRF solution will increase bone, tissue regeneration and help decrease possible rejection and allergic reactions to dental implants.
