What Is L-PRF Therapy?
Leukocyte-Platelet Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) Therapy is an advanced, holistic healing technique that harnesses your body’s natural regenerative abilities. By using a small sample of your own blood, we create a concentrated fibrin matrix rich in platelets, leukocytes (white blood cells), and growth factors. This bioactive compound is applied to surgical sites to promote faster healing, reduce inflammation, and enhance bone and tissue regeneration.
The process is simple, safe, and 100% natural:
- Blood Draw: A small amount of your blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
- Centrifugation: Using the FDA-cleared IntraSpin System, the blood is spun in a centrifuge to isolate the L-PRF clot.
- Application: The L-PRF clot is placed at the surgical site, releasing growth factors for up to 14 days to accelerate healing and support tissue regeneration.
Unlike traditional treatments, L-PRF contains no additives, chemicals, or foreign substances, making it a biocompatible and minimally invasive solution for enhanced recovery. We also offer other holistic dentistry services at our dental practices.
Benefits of L-PRF Therapy at Our Long Island Dental Offices
L-PRF Therapy offers numerous advantages for patients undergoing periodontal or dental implant procedures:
- Accelerated Healing: Growth factors in L-PRF promote faster tissue and bone regeneration, reducing recovery time.
- Reduced Risk of Infection: Leukocytes in the fibrin matrix help combat bacteria, lowering the risk of post-surgical infections.
- Minimized Discomfort: L-PRF reduces inflammation and pain, ensuring a more comfortable recovery.
- Natural and Safe: Since L-PRF is derived from your own blood, there’s no risk of allergic reactions or disease transmission.
- Enhanced Outcomes: L-PRF supports bone and tissue growth, improving the success of procedures like dental implants, bone grafting, and sinus lifts.
