Getting your wisdom teeth out? The first few days can be uncomfortable. We offer two optional treatments to help you heal faster with much less pain
Exparel: Up to 3 Days of Pain Relief
Exparel is a specialized, long-lasting numbing medication. We apply it directly to your surgical sites during your procedure, so it goes to work before you even wake up.
Targeted Relief: Numbs the exact spots where your teeth were removed
- 72-Hour Comfort: Keeps working for up to 3 days to get you through the hardest recovery days.
- Fewer Prescription Pills: Significantly reduces your need for strong, heavy opioid pain medications.
- Back to the Basics: Helps you eat, drink, talk, and sleep comfortably while you rest
PRF: Natural Healing Boost
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) uses your body’s own natural healing powers to help you recover quickly and safely.
- 100% Natural: Made from a tiny sample of your own blood drawn from your IV during surgery.
- Supercharged Recovery: We place the PRF directly into the empty tooth socket to instantly kickstart cell growth.
- Dry Socket Protection: Drastically lowers your risk of painful complications like dry socket.
- Fast Tissue Repair: Helps your gums and bone close and heal much faster

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Exparel and how does it work?
Exparel is a specialized local anesthetic. Unlike regular numbing shots that wear off in a few hours, Exparel releases medicine slowly over time. This keeps the surgical area comfortable for up to 72 hours.
Does it hurt to get Exparel or PRF?
No, neither treatment causes any extra pain. Both Exparel and the PRF blood draw are done while you are completely asleep and sedated for your surgery. You will not feel a thing, but you will wake up with all the benefits.
Can I choose both Exparel and PRF?
Yes. They work together perfectly. Exparel manages your pain for the first 3 days, while PRF immediately goes to work speeding up your physical healing and tissue repair with your own cells.
Are these treatments covered by insurance?
Coverage varies depending on your specific plan. Because these are advanced comfort options, some insurance companies consider them elective. Our team will gladly check your benefits and provide a clear breakdown of any out-of-pocket costs before your surgery.
