PRF is obtained from the platelets of my own blood. The platelets contain growth factors that help stimulate soft tissue healing, decrease the rate of bone loss, and improve the overall time taken for recovery
The PRF procedure has been used in the medical field since 2001 and in dentistry since 2006.
I agree to having several vials of my own blood drawn by my dentist. The vials of blood will then be placed and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate and activate the platelets to make them release their growth factors.
The blood used is my own. All blood drawing materials, needles, and all the centrifuge processing containers, are single use and are disposed in our medical waste container after each patient.
Each PRF procedure uses it's own sterile materials and supplies.
