Advanced Healing Protocols
There’s more to technology than tools. Dr. Porcelli and our staff are dedicated to using biologically based, advanced healing methods that help you recover with the power of your own body. This includes plasma-rich growth factors (PRF), proteins that occur naturally in your blood and help your body heal quickly after bone grafting and other procedures. PRF are isolated by means of a centrifuge which separates the elements of your blood, then used at the site of an incision to stimulate healing.
GBT is a modern dental hygiene protocol that focuses on identifying and removing dental biofilm – advanced air-polishing technology, and targeted removal of hardened deposits.
