There are many health risks associated with poor oral health care, such as periodontal diseases. These refer to serious infections under the gumline. An example of one such disease is gingivitis.
Not only will this affect your oral cavity, as you may lose teeth, but this infection can also contribute to heart and lung disease. This is why it is essential that treatment is administered as soon as possible, and that’s where we come in.
Here at Amazing Smiles, we use only the highest quality products on the market to ensure that our clients receive the best treatment. This is why we rely on ARESTIN® (minocycline hydrochloride) when treating periodontal disease.
ARESTIN® is an antibiotic that kills the bacteria that causes the infection. Have a look at why this is our preferred choice:
- It’s placed directly in the infected areas, or “pockets”, in your gums
- It’s applied right after scaling and root planing, which is the dental procedure that disrupts stubborn plaque and bacteria below your gum line. This is where brushing and flossing can’t reach
Benefits
- It starts working quickly, right at the source of infection and keeps fighting bacteria long after you leave the dental office 1,2
- It fights infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and provides significantly better results than scaling and root planing alone for up to 90 days3
