What Is L-PRF?
When it comes to rebuilding or replacing teeth, the process often involves surgery, which can include the need to add or regenerate bone. To ensure the best outcomes, it’s crucial to use materials that are highly compatible with your body, materials that will be accepted by your system, promote growth, and accelerate healing.
Traditionally, dentists have used bone substitutes from cadavers, other humans, or animal sources like cows or pigs. However, these external sources can present certain challenges and risks. In response to these limitations, there has been a remarkable advancement known as PRF technology, specifically L-PRF in our practice.
L-PRF is a cutting-edge process where we draw a small amount of your blood and use a centrifuge to isolate the most beneficial components. These components can be used in either a liquid form or as a solid membrane. We then apply these materials to areas in need, such as bony defects or wounds in the mouth. This technique is also highly effective in promoting the growth of gums and bone.
Because L-PRF uses your own blood, there’s no risk of rejection. Your body naturally accepts it, making it a powerful tool in healing. It’s like harnessing the best parts of your blood and applying them precisely where they’re needed. This technology not only accelerates bone and gum growth but also enhances the healing and integration of dental implants.
We are extremely proud to offer this innovative and highly effective technology, which represents a significant advancement in dental care. L-PRF is transforming the way we approach healing and restoration, providing faster and more reliable results.
