PRP Therapy for Accelerated Healing

Harnessing the Body’s Natural Healing Process

Platelet-Rich Plasma is derived from a small sample of the patient’s own blood. The blood is processed to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors that play an important role in tissue healing.

When applied during oral surgery, PRP may help support:

• Tissue regeneration
• Bone healing
• Reduced inflammation
• Improved surgical recovery

Because PRP is created from the patient’s own blood, it is a natural treatment used to enhance the body’s healing response.

When PRP Therapy Is Used in Implant Dentistry

PRP therapy is often used alongside surgical procedures to support healing and tissue regeneration.

Common situations where PRP may be incorporated include:

• Bone Grafting & Ridge Augmentation
• Dental Implant Placement
• Full Arch Restoration
• Surgical procedures involved in OMS Full Mouth Reconstruction

By supporting bone and soft tissue healing, PRP therapy can be a valuable addition to many surgical treatment plans.

How Platelet-Rich Plasma Is Prepared

PRP therapy begins with a simple blood draw performed at the time of the procedure.

The process generally involves:

1. Blood Collection
   A small sample of the patient’s blood is drawn.
2. Centrifuge Processing
   The blood sample is placed in a centrifuge, which separates platelet-rich plasma from other components.
3. Application During Surgery
   The concentrated PRP is applied to surgical sites to support healing and tissue regeneration.

Because the material comes from the patient’s own body, it is well tolerated and integrates naturally with the healing process.

Advanced Surgical Care with Modern Technology

PRP therapy is often used alongside advanced diagnostic and surgical planning tools at Precision Implant Center.

Our implant center uses:

• CBCT 3D imaging to evaluate bone structure and surgical anatomy
• Shining 3D Elite digital scanning to create precise treatment plans
• Digital surgical planning for implant placement and grafting procedures

These technologies allow treatments to be carefully planned while supporting accurate surgical execution. Learn more about our systems on the Advanced Technology page.

Surgical Expertise in Implant and Regenerative Care

PRP therapy and surgical procedures are performed by Dr. Jordan Christensen, a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon with extensive training in advanced surgical techniques.

His experience in implant surgery, bone grafting, and reconstructive procedures allows regenerative therapies such as PRP to be incorporated when appropriate to support healing and treatment outcomes.

The restorative phase of treatment is completed by Dr. Jennifer Pierce and Dr. Brandon Pierce, who design and place implant-supported restorations following surgical healing.
