Perio Protect

In our office Dr. Miller is able to provide a number of intervention treatments regardless of whatever stage of gum disease is present. Minor symptoms can be treated non-surgically with some basic patient education,a thorough cleaning followed up with Perio Protect, a home care treatment program for periodontal disease using a dentist-created and FDA-cleared medical device. This device can deliver doctor-prescribed medications to the source of periodontal infections. These medications address the pathogens that cause gum disease.

The medical device is a set of custom fabricated Perio Protect Trays™ that are easy to use and comfortable to wear. The Perio Protect Trays offer varying thickness and differing extensions to support a special seal that gently guides antimicrobial agents of the dentist's choosing into the infected area (gingival sulcus) and that maintains the medications for a sufficient time to control the bacteria causing the infection. As healing occurs, patients alter the frequency and duration that they wear their trays.

  • No Expensive Surgery
  • No Lengthy Appointments
  • No Pain
  • No Shots

The Perio Protect device, a popular choice for patients seeking non surgical treatments, has been proven (over 16 years of research and clinical trials) to kill harmful bacteria within 2 hours.

Foul breath is eliminated for many patients. Swelling and inflammation becomes more controlled ad eventually leads to the elimination of bleeding gums.

In order to obtain Perio Protect Trays, a patient must visit a dentist who is a licensed Perio Protect partner, such as Dr. Miller. Once the dentist completes precise impressions of a patient's mouth, impressions are sent to a dental lab where customized trays are made to meet an individual patient's needs and conditions.

A special antibiotic gel is formulated and placed inside of the trays. The antibiotic gel seeps in above and below the gumline which begins to eliminate all bacteria and calculus (tartar).

Based on your diagnosis,an instruction sheet outlining frequency wear is given to you to take home. The entire treatment is done in the comfort of your own home. You will notice, as treatment progresses, that your teeth will become whiter while your breath becomes fresher.

During occasional follow up visits in our office, our hygienists will gently remove any remaining softened deposits bacteria and evaluate the progress of treatment. The visits will be quick, easy, and painless.

Patients' response to treatment has proven to be extremely rapid, and patient acceptance has been outstanding. The method is easy to follow and painless, and the medications help to control the bacteria that cause the disease infection.

Perio Protect offers a new way of eliminating most connective tissue and gingival tissue diseases without traditional periodontal surgery.
