Tailored to Perfection
The Perio Protect Method™ is a groundbreaking approach that uses the Perio Tray™, a patented and non-invasive device, to effectively deliver medication deep into periodontal pockets. Unlike traditional methods like toothbrushes, rinse, and floss, this method ensures that the medication reaches areas that are typically difficult to access.
By using these customized trays, the Perio Protect Method™ allows for continuous treatment beyond the dental chair, providing comfort and convenience at home. Moreover, these trays are the only periodontal medicament carriers with FDA clearance and a proven track record of reliable results, backed by years of research.
The method
Our approach yields outcomes, not microorganisms.
When other methods are not effective
Maintaining good oral hygiene requires brushing, rinsing, and flossing. However, these practices are not sufficient to target the bacteria that thrive deep below the gum line in the periodontal pockets.
In the past, more intensive treatments such as root planing and scaling, or even surgery, were necessary to address advanced gum disease. Scaling involves numbing the gums and scraping the tooth surface to eliminate bacteria, but unfortunately, they tend to quickly return. Surgery typically involves cutting the tissues to lift a flap and clean the root surfaces.
In some cases, antibiotics may be prescribed to combat bacteria. While they may provide immediate relief, their effects are often short-lived. Moreover, excessive use of antibiotics can reduce their effectiveness and lead to significant side effects.
Perio Tray™ Therapy
The Perio Protect homecare treatment is prescribed by a doctor and applied by the patient. When you receive your custom Perio Tray™, your dental team will show you how to place a small amount of prescription medicine in each tray. You only need to wear the tray for a few minutes each day. Your dentist will create a personalized treatment plan for you, as the duration and frequency of use may vary for each patient.
The trays have a patented seal that effectively delivers medication deep below the gums to treat infection. A gentle concentration of hydrogen peroxide cleanses the periodontal pockets, fighting bacteria, whitening teeth, and freshening breath.
Perio Tray™ therapy is a non-invasive complement to in-office treatment, increasing the chances of long-term oral health success.
While gum disease cannot be cured, it can be managed with daily treatment to prevent the return of harmful bacteria. Once you achieve the desired results, your dentist will adjust your treatment plan to maintain those results.
The Perio Protect Method is an attractive and minimally invasive option for patients with gingivitis and chronic periodontitis. It also promotes healthy gums around crowns and implants, ensuring optimal restorative care with long-lasting effects.
