Tooth Extractions with Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
A tooth extraction enhanced with Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) — a healing membrane created from a small sample of the patient's own blood. PRF concentrates platelets, growth factors, and white blood cells into a natural scaffold placed into the extraction socket immediately after the tooth is removed.
After local anesthesia (with sedation available), the tooth is removed atraumatically to preserve surrounding bone. A small blood sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge chairside to produce the PRF clot or membrane, which is placed into the socket and secured with sutures. The visit typically takes under an hour.
Patients who want faster, more comfortable healing after any extraction — especially those planning a future dental implant, patients with slower healing (smokers, controlled diabetics), and anyone wishing to reduce dry-socket risk.
- Significantly reduced risk of painful dry socket
- Faster soft-tissue closure and less post-op discomfort
- Better bone preservation for future implant placement
- 100% natural, from the patient's own blood.
CBCT 3D scanning maps root anatomy and nerve position before surgery so the tooth can be removed with minimal trauma, and the preserved socket can be evaluated precisely for future Straumann implant planning.
