PRP: restorative therapy in dentistry
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a progressive medical technology that promotes tissue regeneration (restoration) and helps accelerate their healing.
The use of PRP in maxillofacial surgery has a positive effect on the outcome of the operation, reduces the likelihood of bleeding, promotes effective and rapid healing of soft tissues, and also significantly shortens and facilitates the recovery period after surgery.
How does PRP work?
There is nothing more reliable and safer than using the body's own regenerative abilities. Therefore, the main material in PRP is platelet-rich plasma: it helps accelerate the growth of bone and soft tissue and is produced from a small amount of the patient’s own blood, collected immediately before the procedure.
How is PRP used in dentistry?
PRP is used for implantation and osteoplastic surgery.
The use of PRP in implantation helps improve nutrition and activate restoration processes in tissues, which is one of the decisive factors for the successful implantation.
If the bone tissue of the jaw is atrophied, you will be offered to undergo osteoplasty - an operation to build bone at the site of the intended implantation. Such operations are also accompanied by therapy using platelet-rich plasma, which reduces trauma and bleeding, speeds up the successful outcome of the procedure and shortens the period between osteoplasty and the implantation procedure. In addition, enriched blood plasma is one of the few methods in the treatment of oral diseases - periodontal disease and periodontitis.
PRP technology has been successfully used by doctors at the Familia Clinic for more than 10 years.
