Phlebotomy: Serena innovating on Dental Bioengineering to keep your beautiful smile

At Serena Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in Clairemont, San Diego, we take pride in always being up to date on the latest technology and most innovative techniques in dentistry to benefit our patients and give them the quality service they deserve. That’s why we want to announce that Dr. Serena Kurt is now certified as a Phlebotomy Specialist. What is this and how does it benefit your Dental treatment? Let us explain.

Phlebotomy is the practice of drawing blood from patients and taking the blood specimens to the laboratory to prepare for testing. At first glance, this would seem unrelated to Dental Treatment or Dental Implants, but it’s not, it will benefit the patient in many ways that allow implants to settle much better once they’re installed, especially in drastic cases where the jawbone has deteriorated. However, this will allow you to heal faster and look as natural as ever.

Special state certification in the United States is required in California. To qualify to sit for an examination, candidates must complete a full phlebotomy course and provide documentation of clinical or laboratory experience. Dr. Kurt has now completed full certification to bring you all the commodities of this advanced treatment at an affordable price. Phlebotomy is used for Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) procedure. PRP accelerates healing and enhances bone growth, which in turn stimulates osseointegration of dental implants. This means that if you’re getting work done in our clinic, the procedure will allow the Doctor to add tissue to make regeneration and healing process much faster.

During the PRP procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn in preparation for dental implant treatment. PRP is a by-product of blood that is rich in platelets. Platelets are irregularly-shaped, colorless bodies that are present in the blood. Their sticky surface lets them, along with other substances, form clots to stop bleeding. Platelets contain growth factors (GFs), which serve as effective inducers of normal tissue repair. It also helps that this process is completely painless and will allow you to continue your daily activities. As we mentioned before, this process makes your teeth much more aesthetic, as it accelerates the natural process of rehabilitation, making it seem like you never had any work at all.

Due to the Platelets allowing your body to create new tissue by stimulating mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). An article in The International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry detailed a study regarding the use of Growth Factors in molar sites with bone defects. The authors of the article advocated the use of Growth Factors in immediate placement of implants at the time of tooth removal. They elaborate on how using this process practically guarantees the treatment will be successful, you will be able to preserve the bone, and soft tissue in the area wherein the implant is done, and superior esthetic results, helping you get back your beautiful smile in no time.
