Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in Winston-Salem, NC

If you’re planning for a dental implant, extraction, or bone graft, healing time and comfort matter. That’s why we offer Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy — an advanced technique that uses your body’s own natural growth factors to speed healing, reduce inflammation, and improve surgical outcomes.

At Trenton B. Bottoms, DDS, we incorporate PRP therapy in Winston-Salem as part of our commitment to modern, minimally invasive care. Whether you're having a tooth extracted, undergoing bone grafting, or receiving a dental implant, PRP can support faster healing — naturally.

What Is PRP Therapy?

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated portion of your own blood that is rich in platelets — cells that contain powerful healing and growth factors. These platelets promote tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and enhance soft and hard tissue repair.

PRP is created by drawing a small amount of your blood and spinning it in a centrifuge. This separates the platelets from other blood components. The PRP is then applied directly to the surgical site to support healing.

• Reduces swelling, bruising, and discomfort
