ARESTIN®: A Revolutionary Treatment for Periodontal Disease
Welcome to Hera Z Blazer, DDS, your trusted source of dental services in San Francisco, CA. We are committed to providing high-quality dental care to our patients, and we understand the importance of addressing periodontal disease. In this article, we will discuss a groundbreaking treatment called ARESTIN® and how it can help combat periodontal disease.
Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a serious oral health condition that affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and other oral health complications. Common symptoms include swollen and bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, and loose teeth.
What is ARESTIN®?
ARESTIN® is an antibiotic treatment specifically designed to combat periodontal disease. It comes in the form of tiny microspheres that contain minocycline hydrochloride, a powerful antibiotic. These microspheres are placed directly into the pockets of the gums, where they release medication over time to fight the bacteria causing the infection.
The Benefits of ARESTIN®
ARESTIN® offers several benefits for patients with periodontal disease:
- Effective Treatment: ARESTIN® delivers antibiotics directly to the infected areas, targeting the root cause of gum disease.
- Minimally Invasive: The application of ARESTIN® is a simple and non-surgical procedure, making it a comfortable option for patients.
- Long-Lasting Results: The microspheres dissolve slowly, ensuring a continuous release of antibiotics for up to 21 days, promoting healing and reducing pocket depth.
- Convenient: ARESTIN® treatment can be performed during a routine dental visit, saving you time and eliminating the need for additional appointments.
The ARESTIN® Treatment Process
The ARESTIN® treatment process involves the following steps:
- Dental Examination: Our experienced dental team will conduct a comprehensive examination to assess the extent of your gum disease.
- Pocket Measurement: Using specialized tools, we will measure the depth of the pockets between your gums and teeth to determine the appropriate placement of ARESTIN®.
- ARESTIN® Application: The microspheres will be applied directly into the affected pockets, ensuring precise delivery of the medication.
- Follow-Up Care: We will schedule regular follow-up visits to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
