Overview of PRF

Recovery is one of the most important — and often most anxious — parts of any surgical dental procedure. The way the body heals after implant placement, bone grafting, or sinus augmentation can significantly influence the overall outcome. PRF is a treatment that works directly with the body’s own biology to support that healing process more effectively and more naturally than would otherwise occur.
At Alaska House Dental Practice, we offer PRF as part of our implant and surgical treatments for suitable patients — reflecting our commitment to using the most current, evidence-supported techniques to improve patient experience and clinical outcomes alike. For many patients, incorporating PRF means a smoother recovery, less post-surgical discomfort, and greater confidence throughout the healing process.

Understanding PRF

PRF stands for Platelet Rich Fibrin. It is prepared by taking a small sample of the patient’s own blood — typically just before or during surgery — and processing it in a centrifuge. This separates the blood into its component parts and concentrates the platelets and growth factors into a fibrin membrane or gel that can be applied directly to the surgical site during the procedure.
Platelets contain a rich concentration of growth factors — proteins that play a key role in the body’s natural repair process, promoting cell proliferation, blood vessel formation, and tissue regeneration. When applied to an implant site or bone graft, the PRF membrane releases these growth factors gradually, providing a sustained biological stimulus that supports faster integration and more effective healing throughout the recovery period following surgery.

The Right Candidate

You might be a suitable candidate for PRF treatment in Blandford Forum, if any of the following apply:
  • You are undergoing dental implant surgery: PRF can enhance healing around implant sites, supporting faster osseointegration and reducing the risk of post-operative complications in patients having implant procedures.
  • You are having a bone graft or sinus lift: PRF membranes are commonly used alongside bone grafting procedures, where they help maintain the graft material in position and provide biological stimulus for more effective new bone formation.
  • You prefer natural treatment approaches: As PRF is derived entirely from your own blood, it contains no synthetic additives or donor-derived materials — making it a particularly appealing option for patients who prefer biologically natural interventions.
  • You want to give your healing the best possible chance: Patients who wish to optimise their recovery and give their procedure the best opportunity for successful integration may benefit meaningfully from incorporating PRF into their surgical plan.

Why Choose PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) ?

There are several advantages to incorporating PRF into your dental surgical treatment, including:

Entirely from your own blood

PRF uses only material derived from the patient — there are no synthetic agents, no donor tissue, and no risk of rejection, making it one of the safest biological adjuncts available in implant dentistry.

Promotes faster tissue healing

The concentrated growth factors in PRF actively stimulate the body's repair processes at the surgical site, helping soft tissues and bone begin healing more rapidly than they would without biological augmentation.

Reduces post-operative discomfort

Patients who receive PRF often report a more comfortable post-surgical experience, with reduced swelling and discomfort compared to procedures performed without the addition of this biological support.

Supports bone graft retention

PRF membranes help hold grafting material securely in position, protecting it during the early and critical stages of healing when movement or displacement would compromise the outcome of the graft.

Enhances implant integration

Growth factors released by the PRF membrane stimulate bone cell activity around the implant surface, potentially accelerating and improving the quality of osseointegration throughout the healing period.

Minimal additional procedure

Preparing PRF requires only a small blood draw taken just before or during surgery — adding very little to the procedure time whilst potentially delivering meaningful benefit to healing, integration, and patient comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore our Frequently Asked Questions for short answers that provide clarity about our treatments.

Is there any risk associated with using PRF?
Because PRF is made entirely from your own blood, the risk of allergic reaction or rejection is essentially eliminated. The main consideration is the small blood draw itself, which is straightforward and well-tolerated by the vast majority of patients.
A small blood sample is taken and placed in a centrifuge that spins it at a controlled speed, separating the components. The platelet-rich layer is drawn off and processed into membranes or a gel for immediate chairside use.
PRF is used alongside grafting materials rather than as a replacement for them. It enhances the biological environment in which bone regeneration occurs but does not independently substitute for the structural scaffold that conventional grafting materials provide.

Your Treatment Journey

Each patient’s experience is different, but this is what you can expect while undergoing treatment at Alaska House Dental Practice.

Initial consultation

We begin with a detailed check-up with an implant dentist at Alaska Dental Care, looking at your oral health and discussing what you need to create a plan that suits you.

Your Treatment Journey

Each patient’s experience is different, but this is what you can expect while undergoing treatment at Alaska House Dental Practice.

We discuss the role of PRF in your specific surgical plan, explain the preparation process, and confirm whether incorporating PRF is clinically appropriate and beneficial for your individual procedure and healing goals.
A small blood sample is taken at the start of your appointment, PRF is prepared chairside, and the membrane or gel is placed directly at the surgical site as part of your implant or grafting procedure.
We provide full post-operative guidance and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor healing, assessing the contribution of PRF to tissue and bone recovery at your surgical site throughout the healing period.
