This month’s blog discusses an innovative way to manage gum disease: antibiotic resistance.
That’s why Perio Protect is so helpful. It offers a simple, easy, and painless way to help maintain your gum health at home. Perio Protect may reduce the frequency and complexity of scaling and root planing. It might be able to help you avoid surgery for advanced gum disease.
How Perio Protect Works
Perio Protect uses custom-made Perio Trays™ to deliver an antimicrobial solution beneath your gums. Essentially, the system places hydrogen peroxide deep beneath your gums, far beyond where routine teeth cleaning can go.
The trays keep the solution in place and stimulate oxygen release. This changes the microbiological environment under your gums and helps destroy the harmful bacteria that linger there.
Additionally, the Perio Protect solution can help clean mouth wounds and prevent them from becoming infected.
