PRP therapy in the dental field is most often used in two cases: the treatment of inflammatory gum disease and the replacement of a bone defect. In the first case, platelet-rich plasma is injected into the inflamed gum tissue, and in the second - into the affected bone tissue during implantological surgery, the addition of bone materials (bone volume increase, sinus lifting) and tooth extraction.
Our website offers, among other things, the so-called PRP-Tubes for the production of platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
PRP therapy works the same way in both cases: firstly, it has an anti-inflammatory effect, and secondly, it promotes tissue repair. The mechanism of action is based on growth factors contained in platelet-rich plasma. Growth factors contribute to the formation and development of new microvessels, thanks to which any tissues are restored fully and quickly, as well as local immunity is activated.
PRP therapy has also proven itself well when plasma is injected into the hole of a removed tooth. In this case, the hole heals quickly enough, without inflammatory processes, providing a good mass and a degree of quality of the resulting bone tissue. This fact is the main thing during the replacement of removed teeth with implants.
We remind you that nowadays the implantation procedure is the "gold standard" for restoring lost teeth. In this regard, PRP therapy is always recommended for clients who have had one or more teeth removed.
Contraindications for PRP therapy are insignificant, since the patient's own blood is used, which eliminates the possibility of allergies and rejection. PRP therapy is a simple, convenient, affordable, highly effective, and most importantly — a safe method!
