PRGF® is more predictable and superior than lidocaine and hyaluronic, relieving pain >

Two different meta-analysis (1,2) identify that between 31% to 44% of adult population experience some form of temporomandibular disorders. Other studies (3) reflect that more than half of patients experiencing these disorders might experience pain, having a much higher prevalence in women.

Minimally invasive treatment with intra-articular injections of PRGF-Endoret is predictable and efficient reducing pain and improving mobility of temporomandibular joint.(4)

These benefits are easily perceived by the patient only a few weeks after the treatment, reaching its maximum 3 months later.

 

Endoret® (PRGF®) has demonstrated in multiple studies its efficacy in:

 
  • Reducing significantly temporomandibular joint pain compared with other treatments (5, 6, 7).
  • Treatment benefits reducing pain and improving mouth opening are maintained over time (8).

Why BTI?

 

Endoret® (PRGF®) is the first and most documented autologous platelet-rich plasma described in the literature worldwide.

It is important to remember that not all platelet-rich plasmas are Endoret® (PRGF®). Unlike other products, Endoret does not include leukocytes in its composition, which gives it more effective anti-inflammatory properties, reducing significantly the postoperative pain and facilitating a faster recovery with predictability and more patient comfort.

We are BTI Biotechnology Institute. We are devoted to science and Research. For the 6th consecutive year, BTI is the company with the highest number of biotechnology publications in high-impact science journals among local and multinational Biotechnology corporations with offices in Spain.
