PRP – Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy in Baton Rouge

Accelerated Healing & Regeneration at Kidder Dental

Healing after oral surgery, dental implants, or gum treatments is crucial for long-term success. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an advanced regenerative treatment that enhances tissue healing, reduces recovery time, and improves surgical outcomes. At Kidder Dental in Baton Rouge, we offer PRP therapy to help patients heal faster and more comfortably after complex dental procedures.

Led by Dr. Dustin Kidder and Dr. Elizabeth Kidder, our team uses state-of-the-art techniques to harness the body’s natural healing ability. Whether you’re undergoing tooth extractions, bone grafting, or implant surgery, PRP therapy can accelerate tissue regeneration and minimize complications.

What Is PRP Therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy uses a concentrated form of your own blood’s platelets to stimulate natural healing and tissue repair. Platelets contain growth factors that promote faster recovery and reduced inflammation after dental procedures.

How PRP Therapy Works

  1. A small amount of your blood is drawn before your procedure.
  2. The blood is placed in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets.
  3. The PRP is then applied to the surgical site to enhance healing and regeneration.

Because PRP is derived from your own blood, it is 100% biocompatible, safe, and highly effective for improving post-surgical recovery.

Benefits of PRP Therapy in Dentistry

PRP therapy is used to speed up healing and reduce discomfort for patients undergoing oral surgery and advanced dental procedures.

Key Advantages of PRP Therapy:

✔ Faster Healing – Promotes tissue repair and reduces recovery time.
✔ Reduced Swelling & Pain – Minimizes inflammation after surgery.
✔ Lower Risk of Infection – Enhances the body’s natural defense system.
✔ 100% Safe & Natural – No synthetic materials or foreign substances.
✔ Improved Bone & Soft Tissue Regeneration – Enhances the success of bone grafting and implant procedures.

PRP therapy is especially beneficial for patients undergoing extensive treatments such as bone grafting and dental implant placement.

When Is PRP Therapy Used in Dentistry?

PRP therapy is commonly used in various oral and maxillofacial procedures to promote faster recovery and tissue regeneration.

1. Dental Implant Surgery

PRP therapy enhances bone integration and reduces healing time for dental implants, increasing the likelihood of long-term success.

2. Bone Grafting & Ridge Augmentation

For patients needing bone grafting before implant placement, PRP helps stimulate bone growth and improve graft acceptance.

3. Wisdom Teeth Removal & Tooth Extractions

After wisdom teeth removal or other extractions, PRP reduces pain, swelling, and dry socket risk by accelerating gum and bone healing.

4. Gum Disease Treatment & Periodontal Surgery

PRP therapy helps regenerate damaged gum tissue after treatment for gum disease or periodontal surgery.

5. TMJ Therapy & Jaw Surgery

For patients undergoing TMJ therapy or corrective jaw surgery, PRP promotes joint healing and soft tissue regeneration.

By incorporating PRP into your treatment, we can help ensure a smoother, faster recovery with less discomfort.

  • Are undergoing oral surgery, dental implants, or extractions.
