Implant Surgery for Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and Osteoporosis? (PRF Implant, Autologous Blood Implant)

Customized for patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis

Implant surgery with enhanced stability

About PRF implants and autologous blood implants

When it comes to implant surgery for people in their 50s and 60s, several factors must be considered, because the incidence of conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis is high. Even people in their 30s and 40s are no longer completely free from diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis. If a patient has one of these conditions, recovery tends to be slower, so if care is not taken, the condition of the gums may worsen and side effects may occur, which can make it difficult to decide on implant surgery.

That said, dentures, which are inconvenient to remove and wear, or bridges, which require adjacent teeth and also require some removal of natural teeth, are not easy options either.

Is there no way for patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, or osteoporosis to get implants?

About PRF implants and autologous blood implants

PRF, short for Platelet Rich Fibrin, is a platelet-concentrated fibrin derived from the patient’s own blood. It is separated from white blood cells and platelets using a dental centrifuge and concentrated as a growth factor. When PRF is applied to the implant site before implant placement, it generates proteins that promote the regeneration of the gums and gum tissue. This helps improve clotting action, enables faster hemostasis, and shortens the recovery period.

Reasons for PRF implants and autologous blood implants

Chronic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis make patients more vulnerable to bacterial infection and slow the regeneration of gum bone and gum tissue. In such cases, if a standard implant is performed without PRF implants and autologous blood implants, osseointegration after implant placement will not occur properly, leading to severe inflammation. In the end, the implant may fail or have to be removed.

Characteristics of PRF implants and autologous blood implants

• Minimizes side effects of diabetes implants, high blood pressure implants, and osteoporosis implants, and increases implant success rates.

• Minimizes side effects such as peri-implantitis, implant loosening, and implant loss.

• Promotes smooth gum regeneration, making the fusion between the implant and the jawbone stable.

• Reduces pain, swelling, and bleeding at the surgical site.

• Shortens the implant surgery period and bone graft recovery period.

• Reduces the possibility of bacterial infection.

PRF implants and autologous blood implants are divided into i-PRF and A-PRF. i-PRF is in liquid form and quickly helps stabilize the implant, while A-PRF is a fibrin gel that helps release a large amount of growth factors over a long period.

If you have a condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or osteoporosis, implant surgery must be approached carefully. This is an area that requires meticulous treatment tailored to the patient’s condition, characteristics, and environment, so the medical team needs sufficient experience and skill in implants.

Gangnam Saero Dental Clinic selects the appropriate PRF implant and autologous blood implant method for each patient and applies it after collecting only a small amount of blood, making it effective for restoring function and aesthetics after surgery. It also provides ongoing follow-up care and subsequent treatment. In addition, because it uses a strengthened gum bone graft material method rather than a general bone graft procedure, patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, and osteoporosis can maintain implant lifespan for more than 30 years.
