PRF in Dentistry: A Natural Approach to Healing
Biological dentistry is all about working with the body, not against it. Instead of relying only on synthetic materials or medications, it uses natural methods that support whole-body health. One of the most innovative tools in this field is PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)—a healing material made from your own blood that speeds up recovery and promotes long-term wellness.
What is PRF?
PRF, or Platelet-Rich Fibrin, is a natural concentrate of your body’s own platelets and growth factors. It’s created by taking a small sample of your blood and gently spinning it in a centrifuge. This process separates out the fibrin clot—a gel-like substance rich in cells that promote tissue repair.
In simple terms: PRF is your body’s natural healing power, concentrated and applied exactly where it’s needed most.
How PRF is Used in Dentistry
PRF has transformed the way we approach healing in biological dentistry. Some common uses include:
🦷 Tooth Extractions – PRF is placed in the socket to reduce the risk of dry socket, speed healing, and minimize discomfort.
🧬 Dental Implants – By supporting bone growth, PRF increases the success rate and stability of implants.
😁 Periodontal (Gum) Treatments – PRF stimulates regeneration of gum tissue and helps reverse damage from gum disease.
🦷 Bone Grafting & Regeneration – PRF enhances bone healing, making it ideal for patients needing bone support before implants.
