What Is Perio Protect?
Perio Protect is a comprehensive treatment system that manages and prevents periodontal (gum) disease. It utilizes custom-fit dental trays to deliver medication deep below the gumline, directly targeting the bacteria that cause gum disease. This approach helps reduce inflammation, eliminate infection, and promote healing—often without the need for invasive procedures.
How Does Perio Protect Work?
The key component of Perio Protect is its patented Perio Tray®. This custom-made tray is designed to fit snugly over your teeth and gums, creating a seal that delivers antimicrobial medication directly to the affected areas. The treatment process is simple:
- Evaluation: Our dental team will assess the condition of your gums and determine if Perio Protect is the right solution for you.
- Custom Tray Fabrication: Impressions of your teeth will be taken to create your personalized Perio Tray®.
- At-Home Treatment: You’ll apply the prescribed medication daily using your custom trays. Most patients wear the trays for just a few minutes each day.
Benefits of Perio Protect
- Non-Invasive: Perio Protect requires no incisions or sutures, unlike traditional periodontal surgery.
- Effective: Targets harmful bacteria below the gum line that brushing and flossing can’t reach.
- Convenient: Easy to use at home, fitting seamlessly into your daily routine.
- Improves Oral Health: Reduces gum inflammation, bleeding, and infection, promoting healthier gums and teeth.
- Freshens Breath: Neutralizes bacteria that cause bad breath.
