Platelet-rich fibrin dental therapy

Support Your Body’s Natural Healing in Henderson, NV

At Anthem Dental, we use platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) as part of select dental procedures to support the body’s natural healing process. PRF is made from a small sample of your own blood. The sample is processed in a centrifuge to separate a fibrin-rich material containing platelets and other components.

Depending on your treatment plan, PRF may be used after procedures such as tooth extractions, dental implant placement, or gum treatment. Your dentist will explain whether PRF may be appropriate for your needs.

How Does PRF Work?

PRF is prepared from a small blood sample collected at our office. After the sample is processed, the resulting fibrin material can be placed at the treatment site. It acts as a natural scaffold that may support healing in the area.

When Might PRF Be Used?

PRF may be considered as part of certain dental or oral surgery procedures, including:

  • Tooth extractions
  • Dental implant treatment
  • Selected gum or bone procedures

The recommendation depends on the procedure, your health history, and your individual treatment plan.

What to Expect

If PRF is recommended, we will collect a small blood sample before your procedure and prepare it using a centrifuge. The PRF is then placed at the treatment site as part of your care. Our team will discuss the process, expected recovery, and any questions you may have before treatment.

Is PRF Right for Me?

PRF may be a useful option for some patients, but it is not necessary or appropriate for every procedure. Your dentist will review your goals and health history and explain the potential benefits, limitations, and alternatives.
