Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) explained … Natural, accelerated healing for low-risk tooth extraction in Clearwater, FL
Beata A. Carlson, DDS, and Associates practice biomimetic dentistry, which refers to how we return undamaged teeth areas to their original conditions in a kinder, gentler way.
As biological and holistic practitioners, Natural and Cosmetic Dentistry, appreciate that even the most skilled dentists cannot remove all infected material and 100% of the bacterium. What is left behind can wreak havoc on your oral and overall health. So, we may recommend PRF for Tooth Extraction in Clearwater, FL, as the kinder, gentler, sustainable way to restore your oral and overall health.
Conventional Extractions
Traditional approaches to extractions involve using cutting instruments to access the affected tooth and remove it from its socket. Our care approach transcends the conventional; we use sophisticated technologies and techniques to lift the tooth, non-traumatically, efficiently, gently, and comfortably.
From ozone to laser-assisted therapies, Dr. Beata A. Carlson and her Associates are well-equipped to use these and other tools to minimize discomfort and promote healthy healing. Platelet Rich Fibrin or PRF tooth removal is an excellent complement to the many beneficial adjunctive therapies available at Natural and Cosmetic Dentistry.

- Excessive bleeding
- Swelling
- Numbness
- Bruising
- Pain
- Unpleasant taste
- Delayed wound healing
- Infection
- Fever
Prevent Dry Socket and Heal Faster with PRF
Dry socket is a complication that is characterized by some of the symptoms listed above. Additionally, pain may radiate across your face – from the socket to your neighboring ear or eye, or the temples and neck. This condition develops when the blood clot either doesn’t form at the socket side or becomes dislodged or dissolves before the area can heal; you may look in the mirror and see a dry, empty socket (where tissue should be) staring back at you.
So, healthy healing depends on how the blood clot forms. Partly, the clot prevents food and other irritants from gaining entrance into the socket and protects the surrounding bone. The healing process also involves an increased supply of blood to the socket. Extractions and PRF treatment combined encourage these beneficial processes. When applied to the extraction site, prepared PRF stimulates the pool of blood and the formation of new blood vessels and promotes clotting and accelerates bone healing. When these positive processes are supported, the risk of developing unpleasant or unfavorable complications due to a disruption in recovery is reduced or avoided entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) for tooth extraction?
Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a natural healing material made from a small sample of your own blood. It’s placed into the extraction site to support faster, smoother healing and a more predictable recovery.
How is PRF made?
We draw a small amount of blood and spin it in a centrifuge. This concentrates healing components into a fibrin matrix (PRF), which is then placed directly into the extraction site.
Why would PRF be recommended after an extraction?
PRF is used to support the body’s natural healing process and reduce the risk of common post-extraction issues. Many patients choose PRF to help with smoother recovery and less disruption after tooth removal.
Can PRF help reduce the risk of dry socket?
Yes, it may. Dry socket can happen when the blood clot doesn’t form properly or becomes dislodged too early. PRF supports clot stability and helps protect the socket while the area heals.
How does PRF support healing in the extraction site?
PRF helps support clot formation, encourages healthy tissue healing, and can promote more favorable healing of the bone and gums after an extraction.
Is PRF safe?
PRF is generally considered very safe because it is made from your own blood—so there are no added chemicals or foreign materials. Your dentist will review your health history to confirm it’s appropriate for you.
Is PRF considered a “natural” option?
Yes. Because PRF comes from your own body, it’s often considered a natural or biologic approach to supporting healing after tooth extraction.
Can PRF be used if the tooth had a root canal?
Yes, PRF can still be used after extraction of a root canal–treated tooth. The goal is to support predictable healing in the extraction site.
Do you use a gentle approach to tooth extractions?
Yes. Our team focuses on comfort and aims to remove teeth as gently and efficiently as possible, while supporting healthy healing afterward.
Will I get post-op instructions?
Yes. You’ll receive clear post-op guidance, including what to eat, how to care for the area, and what to avoid during healing. We may also recommend supportive products based on your needs.
