Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy harnesses your body's natural healing abilities to enhance dental treatments. This innovative procedure uses platelets from your own blood to stimulate tissue regeneration and accelerate healing. At London Dental Specialists, we understand you may have questions about this advanced treatment option. PRP therapy has gained popularity in dentistry for its effectiveness in promoting recovery after oral surgeries, implant placements, and treating certain gum conditions. The procedure is minimally invasive with low risk of adverse reactions since it uses your own blood components. Our specialists carefully evaluate each patient to determine if PRP therapy is suitable for their specific dental needs, ensuring optimal results and patient comfort throughout the treatment journey.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy in dentistry is a regenerative treatment that uses a concentrated form of platelets derived from your own blood. At London Dental Specialists, we extract a small blood sample, process it in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma, and then apply this plasma to treatment areas. The platelets contain growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration, promote healing, and reduce inflammation in various dental and oral procedures.
At London Dental Specialists, we use PRP therapy to treat several dental conditions including:
PRP therapy at London Dental Specialists involves minimal discomfort. The blood collection process is similar to a routine blood test. When applying the PRP, we use local anaesthesia to ensure your comfort. Most patients report only mild soreness at the treatment site for 1-2 days following the procedure, which can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relief if necessary.
A complete PRP treatment at London Dental Specialists typically takes about 60-90 minutes. This includes approximately 15 minutes for blood collection, 15-20 minutes for processing the blood in our centrifuge to extract the platelet-rich plasma, and the remaining time for the actual application procedure. The exact duration may vary depending on the specific dental procedure being performed.
PRP therapy offers numerous benefits in dental treatments, including:
PRP therapy at London Dental Specialists is considered very safe as it uses your own blood components. The most common side effects are mild and temporary, including slight bruising or soreness at the injection site. Since PRP is derived from your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or disease transmission is virtually eliminated. As with any dental procedure, there is a minimal risk of infection, but our strict sterilisation protocols significantly reduce this possibility.
The cost of PRP therapy at London Dental Specialists varies depending on the specific dental procedure and treatment area. Prices typically range from £300 to £800 per session. During your consultation, our specialists will provide a detailed treatment plan with exact costs based on your individual needs. We offer various payment options and plans to help make treatment accessible for our patients.
Most dental procedures at London Dental Specialists require only a single PRP application performed during the main treatment. However, more complex cases such as extensive bone regeneration or severe periodontal disease might benefit from follow-up applications. Your dental specialist will create a personalised treatment plan during your consultation, outlining exactly how many sessions would be optimal for your specific condition.
The timeline for visible results from PRP therapy varies depending on the dental procedure and your body's healing capacity. Initial healing benefits typically begin within 1-2 weeks after treatment. For procedures like implants or bone grafting, the full regenerative benefits may take 3-6 months as new bone and tissue form. During your follow-up appointments at London Dental Specialists, we'll monitor your progress and provide guidance on what to expect throughout your healing journey.
