When gum disease plagues you with irritation and pain, you want procedures performed with high success rates and the most advanced treatments. We know how frustrating gum disease is to deal with, which is why here at Cadena Dentistry in Del Rio, TX we utilize Arestin, an antibiotic applied right to the site of gum disease.
Arestin is made of microscopic spheres that dissolve on their own, so there is no need to take them out like with antibiotics of the past. Arestin is applied to the deep gum pockets after a scaling and planing. Arestin has shown to clear up gum disease better than a scaling and planing alone. When bacteria are left deep down in the gum pockets, Arestin works around the clock to kill them. Arestin is time-released so it keeps working long after it has been applied.
When plaque and tartar irritate the gums, they begin to form deep pockets, which cause the gums to recede. This is when the bacteria reach deep down into the gums near the tooth’s root. Gum disease is the number one reason for adult tooth loss.
If you are frustrated with the pain and irritation of gum disease, it is time to take a proactive approach. Ask Cadena Dentistry about Arestin. We are located in Del Rio, TX and appointments can be made by calling (830) 775-3322 or by going to our website, www.cadenadentistry.com.
