Gum disease is caused by a bacterial infection that is hidden below your gums. Dental cleanings can effectively treat the bacteria, but when you return home the cycle often continues. Bacterial cells grow back in just hours after a cleaning, and toothbrushes can’t reach deep enough to address the infection at home.
Here at Bridge Creek Dental, we offer Perio Protect as an option to medicate deep under the gums to fight infections. We provide a take-home tray created by Perio Protect to take home that gently applies medication deep under the gums to fight infections.
The Perio Protect tray is used at home for just minutes each day. The tray is comfortable, flexible, and custom-fit precisely for your mouth.
Suffering from Periodontal Disease?
If you believe you might be suffering from periodontal disease, here are some signs to look for:
- Bleeding gums
- Unexplained gaps between teeth
- Swollen gum tissue
- Bad breath
- Receding gums
- Loose teeth
If ignored, these symptoms can lead to progression of periodontal disease. Contact a dentist and seek treatment.
