ORAL BACTERIA IS LINKED TO SERIOUS HEALTH CONDITIONS
Research studies show a connection between gum disease and serious health concerns including inflammation, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, blood clots and strokes and preterm or low birth weight babies.
How the Disease Starts: When food, bacteria or tartar are not sufficiently cleaned from the teeth, a community of bacteria called a biofilm can develop and cause infections in the space or pocket between the teeth and gum tissue. The Perio Protect Method ® is a technique that you use at home to help manage oral bacteria on a daily basis. Using a custom-formed prescription tray, doctor-prescribed medication can be placed into the periodontal pocket. For most people following the Perio Protect Method® treatment requires just minutes each day. Scientist determined that after 17 days of this treatment 99.98% of the disease-causing bacteria were killed. Patients describe this treatment as comfortable and report a positive side effect of fresher breath and whiter teeth.
