Arestin
Dentist
Tyler, TX.
Periodontal disease is a severe infection under your gum line
- It’s positioned directly in the infected parts—or “pockets”—present in your gums.
- It’s placed straightaway after performing scaling and root planing, the dental process that damages stubborn plaque and bacteria present below your gum line—where brushing and flossing are not able to reach.
ARESTIN® starts to work very fast, just exactly at the source of infection and continues to fight bacteria long after you step out of the dental office. 1,2
ARESTIN® helps to fight infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and renders considerably better results than scaling and root planing alone for near about 90 days.3
