Healing Periodontal Disease with ARESTIN

Periodontal disease will not only compromise the health of your teeth and gums. Periodontal disease has the ability to compromise the immune system, cause bad breath, and potentially lead to tooth loss if the condition is severe enough. If a patient is diagnosed with gingivitis and this goes untreated, he or she poses a risk of aggressive periodontitis. Because aggressive periodontitis will eventually cause the bone supporting the tooth to deteriorate, Dr. Martin Urban, DDS uses ARESTIN to treat the problem.

ARESTIN has the ability to reduce the severity of periodontal disease. In a clinical study, when used in addition to scaling and root planing, ARESTIN reduced harmful bacteria by nearly two times as much as scaling and root planing alone. This is because adding ARESTIN to the mix disrupts the progression of periodontitis by specifically targeting the active infection. ARESTIN is easy for the doctor to use and is 100% safe for the patient.
