Bone Grafting With PRP New York City

Dental Bone Grafting With PRP

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) bone grafting utilizes advancements in oral surgery that use the patient’s blood to enhance the bone grafting procedure and allow for the most optimal results. Jawbone grafting is a process that harvests bone tissue and transplants it to the jawbone. During the procedure, the patient’s blood is taken and spun in a centrifuge. This separates the PRP from the blood. PRP is known for helping athletes to heal injuries. Now, PRP is often used during oral to provide better outcomes and aid in jawbone regeneration.

What Is PRP Bone Grafting?

Jawbone grafting may be required for patients who are seeking dental implant surgery, but don’t have enough natural bone density to support the dental implants. PRP bone grafting combines traditional bone grafting methods with PRP to offer the best possible results. Platelet rich plasma, otherwise known as PRP, is naturally found in the body and is known for its ability to promote growth and healing. When used during the bone grafting procedure, PRP can expedite the healing process and stimulate bone development. At Madison Avenue Oral Surgery & Implant Center, we offer PRP jawbone grafting to help patients build sufficient jawbone density in a shorter period of time, allowing them to become ideal candidates for dental implant surgery.

PREPARING FOR DENTAL IMPLANTS WITH JAWBONE GRAFTING

How Does PRP Bone Grafting Work?

When a patient has insufficient jawbone density or volume to place dental implants, jawbone grafting can be used to restore or regenerate bone density in the jaw. Bone tissue has the natural ability to regrow when damaged. When placed in areas with low jawbone density, bone grafting material can promote healthy bone regeneration. By helping to restore healthy jawbone density, PRP bone grafting makes it possible for patients who previously weren’t candidates for dental implant procedures to become eligible.

By combining PRP with traditional bone grafting procedures, PRP bone grafting can help the jawbone regenerate more quickly. Known for its healing properties, PRP is often used in many cosmetic, medical, and dental procedures. When injected into the treatment area, PRP can help promote the growth of new bone and reduce the chance of any complications. PRP is harvested by taking the patient’s blood and spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the plasma. Plasma contains a high concentration of platelets, which naturally help form blood clots and promote wound healing in the body.

What Are The Benefits Of
PRP Bone Grafting?

PRP bone grafting in NYC can lower the chance of dry socket, a common complication that occurs after a tooth is lost or removed. During the natural healing process of a lost tooth, the hole fills with a blood clot, which should remain in place until the wound has fully healed. However, sometimes this blood clot is dislodged, causing dry socket to occur. PRP bone grafting that is performed after a tooth is lost or removed can promote healing, decreasing the chances of dry socket occurring.

PRP bone grafting adds bone to the jaw, promoting bone regeneration and creating a stable foundation for future dental implants. By combining traditional bone grafting procedures with PRP, we can help patients achieve sufficient bone density and a more stable jaw to anchor their dental implants in place in a shorter period of time.

PRP bone grafting also helps improve the overall aesthetic results of future dental implant procedures. When jawbone density is lost, patients can experience many negative effects, such as changes in facial structure, difficulty talking, and the loosening of surrounding teeth. Patients can benefit from improved jawbone shape and contour. A defined jawbone can help achieve an aesthetically pleasing, yet natural-looking smile.

Compare To Traditional Bone Grafting?

When compared to traditional bone grafting, PRP bone grafting offers patients a lower chance of complications and a quicker rate of healing. PRP dental bone grafting can help prevent dry sockets, bone density loss, infection, and more. Additionally, PRP bone grafting offers a safer, faster healing process. In turn, patients can achieve restored tooth function and appearance in less time. The growth factors in PRP can also reduce pain and discomfort during and after the bone grafting procedure by promoting healing and reducing inflammation.

What Should I Expect During
PRP Bone Grafting?

The total length of the PRP bone grafting procedure can take anywhere from 45-90 minutes to complete, but will vary depending on the patients and their extent of jawbone density loss. Additionally, procedure details will vary based on what material is being used. Most jawbone grafts are comprised of ceramic material.

After the bone graft is placed, patients will have their blood drawn for the PRP portion of the procedure. The blood is then spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma. Once separated, the platelet rich plasma can be injected into the site of the bone graft to promote quicker recovery and results. Because PRP is naturally derived from the body, there is no risk of adverse effects caused by the injections. PRP can promote healthy healing and help build a strong foundation for tooth replacement.

What Should I Expect After PRP
Jawbone Grafting In NYC?

After PRP bone grafting in NYC, patients may experience mild discomfort or pain. However, these symptoms can be treated with over-the-counter medications and should subside in the days following the treatment. It is recommended that patients avoid any strenuous activity and take time to relax and recover after undergoing PRP bone grafting in NYC. Before sending you home, our oral surgery team will provide detailed aftercare instructions. It is important that patients follow these instructions with care to minimize their recovery and maximize their results.
