Platlet Rich Fibrin

PRF is made of fibrin that accelerates wound healing. It contains a number of growth factors found in human blood  that assist in tissue regeneration. It significantly decreases the rate of infection up to 10 fold, especially following molar extractions and prior/during implant placement. ​

The PRF process is very easy. We draw some of your own blood the same as when blood is taken during a routine medical physical. The blood is drawn immediately prior to the procedure normally while the patient is getting numb for the surgery. The blood is then put into a centrifuge. The blood is separated into 3 layers:​
