ARESTIN®: A Closer Look at This Periodontal Treatment
ARESTIN® is a minocycline hydrochloride antibiotic formulated as microspheres. It's used directly in the pockets between your gums and teeth affected by periodontal disease.
The Advantages of Choosing ARESTIN®
- Targets Bacteria Directly: By applying ARESTIN® directly to the infected areas, it effectively targets and reduces harmful bacteria below the gum line.
- Promotes Healing: ARESTIN® not only eliminates bacteria but also promotes healing in the gum tissues.
- Complements Scaling and Root Planing: When used alongside scaling and root planing procedures, ARESTIN® significantly enhances healing outcomes.
Your Journey with ARESTIN® Treatment
The process begins with a thorough examination by our dental team to assess your periodontal health. Following this, a scaling and root planing procedure might be performed to prepare your gums for ARESTIN® treatment. The microspheres are then gently placed into the infected gum pockets where they release antibiotics over time to provide continuous bacterial fight-back action.
Setting Your Expectations for Post-Treatment
After receiving ARESTIN® treatment at Mission Dental Group, patients can expect minimal discomfort and a rapid return to their daily activities. Most patients report feeling better shortly after the procedure, with significant improvements noticed within weeks as their gums heal and become healthier.
