Q - Under what circumstances do you recommend treatment with Perio Protect®?
A - I have two criteria: 1) I see evidence of a gum problem, and 2) I see pathological bacterial growth under a phase contrast microscope. I have been using a phase contrast microscope since 1969 to determine the activity level in pockets. If pathological bacteria are present, I show patients the slide under the microscope. After two weeks of Perio Protect® treatment, I show them the results under the microscope again. When they see how many of the “bad” bacteria are gone and how inactive the remaining plaque is, they realize they have the power to keep their mouths healthy. Perio Protect® has been more effective than anything else I have used—period. I’ve used all forms of conventional treatments and have referred patients to specialists for periodontal surgery. Nothing else has provided long lasting results like Perio Protect® for so many patients. Q - Do any particular Perio Protect® cases stand out to you as highly successful?
A - A patient I have been treating for thirty years came in with the same slightly swollen gums, the usual plaque, etc. that I have been fighting for those thirty years. This time there was more bleeding than usual. Checking the plaque under the microscope I was surprised to see spirochetes, a very potent pathogen. Seeing this convinced him to try the prescription trays which he used twice a day. Two weeks later at his re-evaluation, there was nothing moving on the slide; no spiral forms, no fusiform bacteria — nothing was active. Another memorable patient had been to three specialists before me. The first wanted to remove his first molar, the second wanted to keep the first molar but extract the second molar, and the third said take them both out. He didn’t want to lose any of his teeth. I started treating him with the prescription trays September 2007 and the pockets have remained healthy, the teeth are firm and comfortable, and I can’t find enough plaque to use under the microscope. Q - Are these exceptional cases or do you generally see similar results?
A - This is typical with patients who use the trays every day. Q - Have you encountered any obstacles with Perio Protect®?
A - I find that those who use the trays; twice a day consistently are getting great results. Those who don’t, continue to slide downhill and face losing teeth. Q - Do you have any additional comments?
A - My patients who make Perio Protect® part of their daily routine are delighted with the way it works. |
