PRGF - Advanced healing for Dental Implants in Weybridge Surrey
The entire face of dentistry has changed over the past few decades as it has witnessed tremendous advances in knowledge and technology. Dental implants revolutionized treatment for many patients who needed to replace missing teeth or stabilize a denture. However, the extended healing time and potential discomfort associated with a dental implant procedure can discourage many patients from having the procedure.
The latest groundbreaking discovery is that of PRGF (Plasma Rich in Growth Factor). With the development of treatment with PRGF, both healing time and discomfort can be greatly reduced, as PRGF reduces swelling, speeds healing, and enhances the comfort of the patient. This discovery makes a dental implant procedure an even more attractive option than ever.
We are proud to offer the amazing benefits of PRGF to the patients at Portmore Dental Office. We can stimulate the growth of the bone after placing dental implants while speeding recovery and reducing post treatment discomfort. PRGF uses the body’s own pharmaceutical resources to heal itself. Over 100 scientific studies have been published supporting the safety and effectiveness of this treatment.
When the body is injured, it releases cellular signals (proteins) to accelerate the repair process. The PRGF system isolates these proteins from the blood plasma. The doctor draws a minimal amount of blood from the patient, just like getting a blood test. The healing proteins are isolated by spinning them in a centrifuge. Once the PRGF is isolated, it is placed in the area where healing and tissue regeneration are needed.
This technique has proven its efficiency in the 10,000 patients it has benefitted in various fields of medicine. Since this procedure is essentially an autograft, it can be used on nearly all patients. It is especially helpful for those who have difficulty healing, such as diabetics and smokers. It can be used to speed the growth of bone around dental implants, and the regeneration of bone at extraction sites.
Many well-known people such as Rafael Nadal, Ronaldo, and Tiger Woods have benefitted from the advantages of this amazing technique. They enjoyed a speedy recovery, and were able to get on with their lives and careers much sooner than traditional treatment would have allowed. If you want the benefits of the same treatments as those received by the rich and famous, it is available at Portmore Dental Office.
