Perio Protect

What is Perio Protect?

These custom-made trays, similar to a mouthguard, help you avoid gum disease and invasive dental treatments by delivering medication to areas below your gums. Perio Protect fits into even the busiest schedules, requiring only easy applications and conveniently short wear times.

Infected gums and lingering inflammation take a toll on your immune system and increase your risk for a range of health conditions, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, respiratory disease, and colorectal cancer. The Capitol Smiles Dental team emphasizes preventive measures and clear communication so you can have full confidence in your care.

How does Perio Protect safeguard my health?

Most people don’t realize how strongly oral health impacts overall health. If oral bacteria enter your bloodstream, it can combine with fat deposits. This results in plaque, which can restrict blood flow and cause clots that trigger stroke, chronic inflammation, atherosclerosis, and heart disease.

Periodontal disease is also linked to type 2 diabetes, pre-term delivery and low birth weight infants, and cognitive impairment. Perio Protect aims to decrease your risk of all of these concerns by non-invasively reducing inflammation and neutralizing oral bacteria.

What are the other benefits of Perio Protect?

By taking advantage of a more effective gum disease treatment, you can also experience:

• Less need for dental treatments like scaling
• Fresher breath
• A brighter, whiter smile
• Reduced need for oral surgery

You may be a good candidate for this treatment if you struggle with persistent gum diseases like gingivitis or periodontitis or if you’ve sought care for gum disease in the past.

How does Perio Protect work?

The Perio Protect Method™ uses Perio Trays™ to deliver medication deeper into periodontal pockets than floss, mouthwashes, and toothbrushes can reach. The team personalizes your trays to your mouth, and the customized sealing system ensures the most effective treatment.

You’ll start with a consultation at Capitol Smiles Dental, where the team scans your mouth to make custom trays. Once they’re ready, your provider creates an individualized care plan so you know precisely how to use your trays for the best results.

Perio Protect lets you take world-class dental care home. To learn more about how you can experience significant benefits without invasive surgeries or disrupting your daily routine, call the Capitol Smiles Dental office and speak to the friendly team. You can also book online today.
