PRP Therapy in Colorado Springs, CO

What is Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) Therapy?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative procedure that is performed in conjunction with other oral surgery treatments to achieve positive healing results. PRP therapy utilizes a patient's own blood to promote regeneration of the gums and bone tissue. This is especially ideal when corrective jaw surgery or bone grafts are performed. It can also help reduce the risk of infection and speed up the healing process following surgery. During your initial consultation at our Colorado Springs Oral Surgery Office, ask our team about PRP therapy and how it can benefit your oral health.

Who is a Candidate for PRP Treatment?

Nearly anyone is a candidate for PRP therapy as it utilizes a patient's own blood to enhance their oral health. The concentrated form of platelet-rich plasma contains proteins and growth factors that are important for the healing of wounds. PRP therapy has been used in the medical field for years and is a safe and effective treatment for the stimulation of tissue regeneration and blood clotting. Incorporating this treatment can help reduce bleeding, the risk of infection, and discomfort. If you are interested in combining PRP therapy with your oral surgery or treatment, talk to our team during your consultation to learn more. This is a simple procedure that can provide many benefits.

How is PRP Therapy Performed?

Since PRP uses the patient's own blood, there is no risk of allergic or adverse reactions because it is a natural form of therapy that has been used for many years to aid in healing and blood clotting. PRP is administered during oral surgery and other treatments; therefore, when you visit us for your follow-up appointment, we will evaluate your healing progress. Maintaining optimal oral hygiene, such as brushing and adhering to all Post-Operative Instructions, will help in your recovery, as well.
