PRP Training for Dentists

The course covers PRP applications across four major areas: aesthetics (facial rejuvenation, microneedling with PRP, combination therapies with dermal fillers), pain management (chronic tendinopathies, ligament sprains and tears, bursa injections, orofacial pain), hair restoration (male and female pattern baldness using PRP with biologics like Bio-D and A-Cell), and sexual dysfunction (intracavernous injections for males and intra-vaginal injections for females).

Licensed healthcare professionals including MDs, DOs, DMDs, DDS, NPs, PAs, and RNs are eligible to attend and perform PRP treatments. Unlicensed professionals may participate for observational learning through demonstrations. Completion of pre-course materials and online didactic modules is required before attending the live workshop.

The course covers both single-spin and dual-spin PRP preparation methods using FDA-approved systems. You will learn blood draw technique, centrifuge settings, platelet concentration optimization, and clinical validity comparisons between preparation methods to determine the best approach for each clinical application.

Yes. The course includes supervised hands-on training on live patients under the guidance of board-certified physician experts. You will perform PRP preparation and injection procedures during the live workshop component, building the clinical confidence needed to integrate PRP services into your practice immediately.

The curriculum covers PRP combined with microneedling and MicroRoller techniques for enhanced skin rejuvenation, PRP with dermal fillers for facial volume restoration, and the use of biologics including Bio-D and A-Cell with PRP for hair restoration. You will also learn conjunctive prescription and combination therapy strategies across all clinical applications.

The PRP training provides 6.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. The course is fully CME-accredited and meets professional development requirements that may fulfill licensing board continuing education mandates. Participants receive Empire Medical Training certification upon successful completion.

Certification involves pre-course preparation with access to the educational portal, completion of online didactic modules covering PRP basics, safety, and patient selection, passing a knowledge assessment before the live workshop, attending the one-day intensive hands-on program, and passing a final comprehensive assessment demonstrating proficiency in PRP techniques.

PRP treatments offer strong profit margins with high patient demand across multiple specialties. Revenue opportunities include aesthetic PRP facials, hair restoration treatment series, pain management injections, and sexual dysfunction treatments. The versatility of PRP across four distinct application areas means you can serve diverse patient populations while building a robust recurring revenue stream.

PRP for dental applications — such as post-extraction socket healing, implant site preparation, and bone grafting enhancement — falls clearly within dental scope of practice in virtually all states. Cosmetic PRP applications within the head and neck region are authorized for dentists in many states, with the trend toward broader authorization continuing. Empire provides state-specific regulatory guidance during the course to help you understand your full scope of practice.

PRP concentrated from the patient's own blood delivers a high concentration of growth factors directly to surgical sites, accelerating bone regeneration, improving soft tissue healing, reducing post-operative pain and swelling, and enhancing implant integration. Clinical evidence supports PRP use in extraction sockets, ridge augmentation, sinus lifts, and periodontal regeneration. Patients experience faster healing and better outcomes, which improves satisfaction and practice reputation.

PRP requires a centrifuge, blood collection supplies, and PRP-specific processing kits — all of which fit easily within an existing dental operatory. The equipment investment is modest compared to the revenue potential, and most dental offices can begin offering PRP services immediately after training without facility modifications. Empire provides guidance on equipment selection and setup during the course.

In most states, dentists are authorized to administer botulinum toxin and dermal filler injections within the head, neck, and associated structures. Some states define this scope broadly to include cosmetic applications, while others limit dental injectable use to therapeutic and functional purposes. Empire recommends confirming your state dental board's specific guidelines. Our training provides the clinical certification recognized by dental boards nationwide.

Dentists have superior knowledge of facial anatomy, nerve pathways, and injection techniques compared to most other healthcare professionals entering aesthetics. Your daily experience with local anesthesia, precise needle placement, and patient management in the facial region gives you a significant head start. Empire's course builds on these existing competencies to add aesthetic-specific protocols, product knowledge, and treatment planning skills.

Dental practices that add aesthetic injectable services typically generate $100K-$300K+ in additional annual revenue, often from their existing patient base. Botox and filler treatments have high profit margins, create recurring revenue through maintenance appointments, and attract new patients who become dental patients as well. The crossover appeal is significant — patients who trust you with their smile naturally trust you with their facial aesthetics.
