Jump Like Kobe Bryant After Dental Treatment!


More than likely, none of us will ever jump like Kobe Bryant, but if you get an implant done at Roselle Park Dental, you will have access to the same surgical care that he received.

If you have wondered how professional athletes heal so fast without the use of steroids, one way is through the use of their actual blood, through a process called platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy.  Surgeons use the athlete’s blood to create a protein-enriched plasma that contains positive growth factors and inject it into a surgically-repaired body part.

In dentistry, we are able to draw a patient’s blood, centrifuge it, and create a similar plasma for most implant and bone grafting procedures. The studies show that the use of PRP will help maximize and speed healing, form more solid bone and reduce inflammation, which reduces the pain a patient may experience from surgery.

Here is more information about the, "new treatments [that] use the body's own cells to fight pain and speed healing."
