Perio Protect®
Perio Protect® in Ventura, CA
A minimally invasive treatment for gum disease
For many patients with periodontal disease regular dental visits and home care
with brushing and flossing never seem to be enough to maintain good oral
health. Some patients even undergo periodontal surgery to help combat the
disease. At Goldenberg Dentistry we offer a long-term, minimally invasive,
non-surgical treatment option with Perio Protect®
Dr. Joel Goldenberg and Dr. Jessica Goldenberg feel that it is important
to take a comprehensive approach when treating gum disease. At Goldenberg
dentistry we feel that utilizing the comfortable Perio Tray® in
conjunction with regular cleanings helps to achieve and maintain a healthy
mouth, and in turn, a more healthy body overall. A custom Perio Tray® is
made for each patient that is utilized at home between dental visits. It is
similar to a mouth-guard, comfortable to wear, and has a special sealing
system that effectively delivers medication below the gums. A medication is
placed in the tray and it is worn for a few minutes each day to help fight
the bacterial infection.
“Bacteria that cause inflammation and disease are hidden deep below the
gums and are extremely difficult to manage at home with toothbrushes,
rinses and floss. The Perio Tray is able to reach deep into the pockets
between the teeth and gums, applying medication to infected gum tissue that
cannot be reached using toothbrushes, dental floss, or mouthwashes.* In
fact, the Perio Protect Tray was created to help patients fight periodontal
diseases in the most minimally invasive way possible.”
