What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentration of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood. Platelets are rich in growth factors and proteins that play a crucial role in tissue repair, regeneration, and wound healing. By harnessing the healing properties of these platelets, PRP therapy stimulates tissue regeneration and accelerates the healing process.

PRP has many benefits, including:

Enhanced healing – PRP accelerates the body’s natural healing process, leading to faster tissue regeneration and improved treatment outcomes.

Reduced risk of complications – by promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation, PRP therapy minimises the risk of post-operative complications such as infection and delayed healing.

Natural and safe process – PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood, making it a safe and biocompatible treatment option with minimal risk of adverse reactions or rejection.

How is PRP used in dentistry?

PRP therapy is utilised in various dental procedures to promote tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall treatment outcomes. Some common applications of PRP in dentistry include:


1. Dental implant surgery

PRP is often used during dental implant surgery to promote osseointegration, the process by which the implant fuses with the surrounding bone tissue.

By applying PRP to the surgical site, we can accelerate bone regeneration and enhance the stability and success of dental implants.

2. Periodontal therapy

PRP can be used in conjunction with periodontal procedures such as scaling and root planing or periodontal surgery.

PRP promotes the regeneration of periodontal tissues, including gum tissue and supporting bone, leading to improved periodontal health and reduced risk of tooth loss.

3. Bone grafting

In cases where bone grafting is necessary to augment bone volume for dental implants or to repair bone defects, PRP can be used to enhance the healing process.

PRP stimulates the growth of new bone tissue, leading to faster and more predictable bone regeneration outcomes.

4. Tooth extractions

PRP can be applied to the extraction socket after tooth removal to promote faster healing and minimise post-operative complications such as pain and swelling.

By enhancing tissue regeneration, PRP reduces the risk of complications and facilitates a
smoother recovery process for patients undergoing tooth extractions.

Frequently asked questions

What is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)?

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated form of platelets derived from the patient’s own blood. Platelets are rich in growth factors and proteins that play a crucial role in tissue repair and regeneration. When applied to a specific area, PRP stimulates the body’s natural healing process, promoting tissue regeneration and accelerating recovery.

How is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) obtained?

The process of obtaining PRP begins with a simple blood draw from the patient. The blood is then centrifuged to separate the platelets and plasma from other blood components. The resulting solution is a concentrated form of platelets suspended in plasma, known as Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). This PRP solution is then ready to be used in various medical and dental procedures to promote healing and tissue regeneration.

Is Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy safe?

Yes, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is considered safe when administered by trained professionals using sterile techniques. Since PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood, there is minimal risk of adverse reactions or rejection. However, as with any medical or dental procedure, it’s essential to discuss any potential risks or concerns with your dentist or healthcare provider before undergoing PRP therapy.
