Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF)
Periodontal Associates is the first office in Massachusetts, and one of the first offices in the USA, to use PRGF. Plasma Rich in Growth Factors is used to enhance and maximize bone regeneration, as well as healing from a variety of surgical procedures. It is well known that there are many naturally occurring blood proteins which serve to speed up and maximize wound healing. PRGF is created in our office by taking a small amount of the patient’s own blood and centrifuging it according to a precise protocol. The growth factors are concentrated and PRGF is mixed with graft materials, or used by itself, to promote faster healing for patients! Please feel free to discuss PRGF with one of our doctors.
