Perio Gel

The most commonly prescribed solution with the Perio Tray® is the oxidizing agent Perio Gel® with 1.7% hydrogen peroxide. The Perio Tray® places the gel deep into pockets and holds it there so the oxidizing agent can debride the slimy matrix covering the biofilm and dissolve the most exposed bacterial cells in the biofilms. As the biofilm communities that cause periodontitis decrease, inflammation begins to subside, and the host has new opportunity to heal.

Research shows a connection between gum disease (periodontitis or gingivitis) and serious systemic diseases including:

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Cardiovascular (Heart) Disease
  • Respiratory Disease
  • Blood Clots and Strokes
  • Alzheimer’s Disease
  • Chronic Inflammatory Conditions

Infections in gum tissue may provide a doorway for bacteria to enter the body and contribute to other health concerns, so it is especially important to take gum disease seriously.
