What Is PRF & PRP in Dentistry — And Why More Oakville Patients Are Choosing It
Looking for faster healing after a dental procedure? Want a natural way to reduce swelling, pain, and recovery time?
At Oakview Dental Group, we’re proud to offer PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) — revolutionary treatments that harness your body’s natural healing power to enhance dental outcomes and comfort.
In this article, we’ll explain how PRF and PRP work, why they’re growing in popularity in Oakville, and how they can support your oral health and overall wellness.
What Are PRF and PRP?
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) are derived from a small sample of your own blood, processed in our office in under 30 minutes. The result is a concentrated dose of growth factors and healing proteins, often referred to as "liquid gold," which can be applied directly to the site of dental surgery.
Unlike synthetic products, PRF and PRP are 100% natural, chemical-free, and compatible with your body’s biology.
How Does It Work?
- We draw a small amount of your blood—similar to a regular lab test.
- The blood is spun in a special centrifuge, separating the platelets and plasma from red blood cells.
- The healing concentrate (PRF or PRP) is then applied during your dental procedure to stimulate rapid healing.
What Dental Treatments Benefit from PRF & PRP?
At Oakview Dental Group, we use PRF and PRP to support healing and regeneration in several procedures:
- Dental implants – Improve integration and reduce healing time
- Wisdom tooth extractions – Reduce swelling and promote gum healing
- Bone grafts and sinus lifts – Support stronger bone formation
- Receding gums and black triangle treatment – Encourage soft tissue regeneration
- Facial aesthetics and hair rejuvenation (PRP only)
Whether you’re preparing for an oral surgery, cosmetic enhancement, or advanced periodontal care, PRF and PRP can give your body the extra boost it needs to heal better, faster, and more comfortably.
