Perio Protect
We are a Perio Protect provider in Brookhaven
The Perio Protect Method™ here at Brookhaven Dental Associates uses the patented, non-invasive Perio Tray™ with a customized sealing system that is proven to deliver medication deep into periodontal pockets, where the bacteria causing periodontal disease resides.
From the very first use, The Perio Tray™ creates a sterile barrier that protects tooth surfaces from harmful bacteria. It also delivers medications directly into the root canal at the same time biofilm is penetrated and destroyed; all of which can reduce your risk of infection! They’re also the only periodontal medicine delivery mechanism with FDA clearance.

This innovative approach helps break the cycle of gum disease, giving you the tools and guidance to access periodontal care in our office and from the comfort of your home.

About Our Perio Protect Services
Our Perio Protect service is a medicine delivery mechanism for managing and treating periodontal disease (gum disease). It uses custom-fitted trays and an anti-microbial gel delivered directly into the gum, targeting and treating the source of infection below the gum line.
This method offers a gentle and non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures to promote healthier gums and address the symptoms of gum disease (bad breath, bleeding gums, and gum recession). It is currently the only customizable medication-carrying system of its kind with FDA approval.
The kit consists of the Perio Tray™ whose customized sealing system delivers medication deep into the periodontal pockets, where disease-causing bacteria reside. It is designed to create a sterile barrier to protect the tooth surface from harmful microorganisms.
As soon as medication reached the root canal, it penetrates the bacteria’s biofilm, destroying them. Because this method eliminates the parasites and bacteria that cause infection, it is a long-term solution to periodontal issues, improving your oral health and brightening your smile.
Benefits of Professional Perio Protect Services
We use custom trays specifically designed for your mouth and your unique dental structure. Unlike one-size-fits-all solutions, these custom trays deliver treatment exactly where you need it, making it highly effective.
Moreover, it is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure for treating gum disease. Invasive procedures for cleaning out gum pockets can leave you with sore gums that require an extended healing period. Some leave gaps between the teeth, leading to food impaction, which in turn makes it harder to clean teeth properly.
Our professional Perio Protect treatment does not interfere with gum tissue, but only targets infection-causing microorganisms. By reducing inflammation, this approach promotes healthier gum tissue, which can help to stem the progression of gum disease. It is therefore a comfortable option and a safe, long-term solution for periodontal infection that can be used on its own or to complement other treatments.
What to Expect at Your Perio Protect Appointment
During your initial consultation, you will begin with a thorough examination of teeth and gums, assessing the condition of your gums to develop a personalized treatment plan. Following the assessment, your dentist will take impressions of your teeth and send it to a dental lab so that you can get perfectly fitted custom trays.
At your next appointment, you will get an opportunity to learn how to use the kit at home with a practical demonstration and practice sessions. We will also provide detailed instructions on how often to use it and for how long, in line with your personalized treatment plan. Once you feel comfortable with the process, you will take the kit home and come for periodic assessments to assess your response and review progress.
