Cleaning Around Dental Appliances

Keeping tartar from forming behind and under braces, dental implants, bridges and other dental appliances can be problematic, but is vital to maintaining oral health. These are areas where brushing can’t reach, and irrigating alone doesn’t reduce tartar build-up.  

It is not uncommon in adults that have had their braces removed to discover that the have developed gingivitis or even moderate gum disease because of their inability to remove destructive tartar around their oral appliances.  Similarly, people with semi-permanent bridgework can develop periodontitis for the same reason.

Periogen® delivers the answer to these problems.  When used regularly, Periogen® dissolves all tartar it comes in contact with.  By either swishing Periogen® around the mouth, or irrigating with a Waterpik Ultra, tartar formations are dissolved and new tartar formations are prevented from forming.
