Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
& Bone Grafting
Using Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and advanced bone grafting techniques, we harness your body’s natural growth factors to promote faster healing, reduce inflammation, and support long-term oral health.
What is Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)?
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a natural healing material created from a small sample of your own blood. After processing the sample, a concentrated layer of platelets, fibrin, and growth factors is separated and used to support healing during dental procedures.
Because PRF comes directly from your body, it works with your natural biology to stimulate tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and promote faster recovery.
At GreenEwe Dental, PRF is commonly used alongside bone grafting procedures to support healthy bone regeneration and improve the success of treatments such as dental implants, biological extractions, and periodontal procedures.
Benefits of Platelet Rich Fibrin & Bone Grafting
Faster Healing
PRF contains powerful growth factors that accelerate the body’s natural healing process, helping tissues recover more quickly after oral surgery.
Reduced Inflammation & Discomfort
Because PRF supports the body’s natural healing response, many patients experience less swelling, inflammation, and post-procedure discomfort.
Completely Natural Treatment
PRF is created from your own blood, making it a biocompatible and safe option with no risk of allergic reaction or foreign materials.
The Role of PRF in Bone Grafting
Bone grafting is often recommended when there is insufficient bone to support a dental implant or when bone loss has occurred due to periodontal disease, trauma, or missing teeth.
By incorporating Platelet Rich Fibrin into the grafting process, we can significantly enhance healing and improve the integration of the graft material with your existing bone. The growth factors in PRF help stimulate new bone formation and create a stronger, more stable foundation for future dental restorations.
How PRF and Bone Grafting Work
At GreenEwe Dental, PRF treatment is carefully integrated into your surgical procedure to enhance healing and support bone regeneration.
Treatment typically includes:
- Blood Collection: A small sample of your blood is drawn at the beginning of the procedure.
- PRF Preparation: The blood sample is processed using specialized equipment to isolate platelet-rich fibrin and concentrated growth factors.
- Application During Surgery: The PRF is placed into the treatment area, often alongside bone graft material, to stimulate tissue regeneration and improve healing.
- Enhanced Recovery: The growth factors released from PRF continue to support healing in the days and weeks following your procedure.
This biologically driven approach helps create optimal conditions for tissue repair and long-term oral health.
