Perio Protect treatment for healthy gums and quality oral health

Good oral care entails caring for your teeth as well as your gums. As your oral health will impact your overall health, it pays to go the extra mile to protect your gums from the devastating effects of gum disease (also known as periodontal disease). At A & S Dental Wellness Center of Leominster in Leominster, Massachusetts, we are pleased to provide Perio Protect treatment to our patients facing problems with gum disease. Treatment with Perio Protect can help improve gum health and preserve the quality of your teeth.

How Perio Protect works to combat gum disease

Traditional gum disease treatments involve scaling your teeth to remove plaque buildup and tartar and root planing for deep cleaning below the gum line. Depending on the severity of your condition, you may also require surgery. These procedures can be taxing on patients as well as time-consuming.

Actual Patient Results

Perio Protect treatments make use of custom-made trays containing medication to combat gum disease. These trays are designed to fit comfortably in your mouth for treatment. Once the trays are in place, medication is released to cleanse your gums and teeth from bacteria that cause gum disease. It even reaches below the gum line to eliminate pockets of bacteria that threaten the bone structure of your teeth. The cleansing effect of the medication gives your gums a chance to heal.

Benefits of Perio Protect treatment

Perio Protect can be beneficial for anyone combating gum disease and can even be a preventive measure to keep gum disease at bay. Here are some of the many benefits of this treatment:

• Safe and convenient to use as an at-home treatment
• Effective in controlling bacteria that cause gum disease
• Reduces the need for invasive treatments like root planing or surgery
• Improves oral health by preventing future infections
• Protects you against health problems caused by periodontal disease
