What are PRF Injections?

Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) injections utilise the patient’s own blood-derived growth factors to promote healing and reduce inflammation within the temporomandibular joint. PRF releases cytokines and regenerative proteins slowly over time, making it particularly effective for joint degeneration and chronic inflammation. Research published in Clinical Oral Investigations demonstrates improved pain reduction and joint function following PRF therapy.

Unlike corticosteroid injections, PRF supports natural tissue regeneration without introducing synthetic agents. Studies in Regenerative Medicine highlight its safety and efficacy. One study states:

“PRF offers a biologically sound approach for managing temporomandibular joint disorders.”

This regenerative option supports long-term joint health. Call today

    Why Choose Us?

    Medication & Surgery

    Why Traditional Methods Fail

    Traditional TMJ treatments often rely on pain medication, muscle relaxants,
    or generic appliances. These approaches may temporarily reduce symptoms,
    but they do not repair damaged tissues or restore joint health.
    • Medication Limitations
      Drugs mask pain but don’t repair cartilage or ligaments
    • Generic Devices
      Appliances may protect teeth but do not heal the joint
    • Invasive Surgeries
      Surgery carries risks and often results in long recovery times
    • Recurring Symptoms
      Without addressing healing, pain and dysfunction return

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions About PRF Injections

    PRF Injections is one of the specialized services we provide at the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Raleigh-Durham. Our focus is on identifying the root causes behind your symptoms and delivering safe, non-surgical solutions that support long-term health and comfort.

    PRF, or Platelet-Rich Fibrin, is a natural healing treatment made from your own blood. It contains growth factors and stem cells that promote tissue regeneration, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing. At the TMJ & Sleep Therapy Centre of Raleigh-Durham, PRF is used to relieve TMJ pain, reduce muscle tension, and support recovery after therapy.

    Unlike PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), PRF does not require additives or anticoagulants. It’s 100% natural and processed at a lower spin speed to preserve more healing components. This makes PRF a safer, more effective, and longer-lasting option for tissue repair.

    The procedure is minimally invasive and well-tolerated. A small blood sample is drawn, processed, and reinjected into targeted areas. Most patients report only mild discomfort at the injection site, and recovery is usually quick.

    Many patients experience noticeable improvements within the first few weeks — including reduced pain, improved joint mobility, and faster tissue recovery. The healing continues over several months as the body regenerates new, healthy tissue.

    Yes. Because PRF is made from your own blood, there’s no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. It’s a completely biocompatible and natural way to promote healing. However, patients with certain blood disorders may not be candidates — your provider will review your health history to ensure safety.
