Plasmolifting of gums is a method of treating gum diseases in dentistry, thanks to which you will begin to smile more often, giving joy to yourself and others.
What is plasmolifting?
Plasmolifting as an innovative method for treating gums has been actively used since the beginning of the 2000s. Its basis is the patient’s own plasma (PRP), enriched with platelets, which contribute to cell restoration, tissue rejuvenation and a faster and more efficient recovery after dental manipulations. The drug based on the patient’s blood is made by centrifugation. It is introduced using injections into the affected periodontal, a hole of a removed tooth, the lifting sinus, the place of installation of the implant. The result of the procedure is the cessation of inflammatory processes in the tissues and healing of the gums.
In what cases it is necessary to do plasmolifting
Plasmolifting is widely used in such areas of dentistry as:
- surgical treatment of teeth;
- implantation;
- treatment of periodontitis;
- Aesthetic dentistry.
The procedure takes place quickly and without pain. The patient’s plasma in a liquid state is introduced into a affected area requiring recovery. The gum plasmolifting is widely used by Dent-House clinic doctors in Odessa in the following cases:
- Tooth removal or surgical treatment of gums. The wounds after surgery heal faster, the risk of complications decreases.
- Alveolitis. Treatment of inflammation that occurs after tooth extraction.
- Treatment of the oral cavity before installing removable prostheses.
- With gum inflammations: paradontosis, which most often occurs due to insufficient maintenance of the oral cavity and the accumulation of denture and stones, and periodontitis – the cause of which can be the infection of the oral cavity.
- Before the implantation of the tooth.It is used to increase the level of bone tissue.
- After implantation. Treatment of tissue inflammation in the implant area to prevent its rejection.
It is also used in the process of surgical manipulations before the installation of cult tabs.
