Scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) removes plaque and tartar buildup from below your gumline, but stubborn bacteria can still hide in deep periodontal pockets. At Summit Family Dentistry, we enhance deep cleanings with ARESTIN® (minocycline HCl) periodontal treatment in Littleton, CO 80127 to kill remaining bacteria and accelerate gum healing.
Dr. Richard Harvey, Dr. Morgan Yoxall, Dr. Amanda Miller, and Dr. Eugenio “Gene” Montecinos utilize targeted antibiotic therapy to shrink infected gum pockets, prevent bone loss, and restore healthy gum tissue.
ARESTIN® is a prescription, bioresorbable antibiotic powder containing microspheres of minocycline. Unlike oral antibiotic pills that travel through your whole body, ARESTIN® is applied directly into infected gum pockets where bacteria thrive.
You may benefit from adding ARESTIN® near you to your periodontal treatment plan if you experience:
Placed quickly and gently with zero needles or surgical incisions.
Significantly reduces pocket depth and bacteria levels compared to scaling and root planing by itself.
Works locally in your mouth without causing systemic stomach upset or digestion side effects.
Reduces infection-driven bone loss to protect your teeth from becoming loose or requiring extraction.
