What is Perio Protect?

Perio Protect is a specialized treatment method that uses custom-made Perio Trays™ to deliver medication deep into the periodontal pockets where bacteria hide. These pockets are difficult to reach with standard brushing and flossing, making it hard to remove all bacteria and prevent infection.

Each Perio Tray™ is designed specifically for your mouth, ensuring a secure fit and maximum effectiveness in delivering the medication to areas that need it most.

With Perio Protect, you only need to wear your tray for a few minutes each day, allowing the medication to clean and refresh your gums while supporting long-term health.

What are the advantages of Perio Protect?

Perio Protect offers a variety of benefits that set it apart from traditional gum disease treatments.

Noninvasive and comfortable

Unlike deep cleanings or surgeries, Perio Protect is noninvasive. The trays are easy to use at home, making the treatment both convenient and stress-free.

Supports gum health

Delivering medication directly to the infection site helps reduce bacteria and inflammation, aiding in the management of gum disease. Combined with regular dental care, Perio Protect can support the overall health of your gums.

Additional benefits

Perio Protect doesn’t just improve gum health—it also whitens teeth and freshens breath, making it an excellent option for both therapeutic and cosmetic benefits.

What can I expect from Perio Protect treatment?

The Perio Protect system is designed for at-home use, making treatment both simple and effective.

Personalized treatment plan

At Community Smiles, your dentist will develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, including the recommended duration and frequency of Perio Tray™ use.

Long-term maintenance

Gum disease is a chronic condition, but Perio Protect helps manage it by preventing bacteria from recolonizing the gums. As you progress, your dentist will adjust your plan to maintain optimal results over time.
