Perio Protect: A simple, non-invasive solution for healthier gums

Perio Protect trays

What is perio protect?

Perio Protect is an advanced, non-surgical treatment for gum disease that delivers powerful, bacteria-fighting medication deep below the gumline. Using a custom-fit Perio Tray®, this at-home treatment helps to control harmful bacteria that cause inflammation, bleeding gums, and bad breath. Unlike traditional treatments that rely solely on brushing, flossing, or deep cleanings, Perio Protect provides a consistent and effective way to treat gum disease right at its source.

This comfortable, easy-to-use tray applies a gentle hydrogen peroxide gel directly into periodontal pockets, where bacteria thrive. Not only does this help fight infections and reduce inflammation, but it also promotes fresher breath and healthier gums—all from the convenience of your home. Whether used as a standalone treatment or in combination with professional cleanings, Perio Protect is a simple yet powerful way to improve your oral health and keep your smile looking and feeling its best.

Gum disease also causes inflammation in your body. Oral bacteria that enters your blood stream can increase your risk for arterial inflammation, strokes, and heart attacks. Chronic inflammation from gum disease also makes it harder to manage other disease like type 2 diabetes, ED, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammation based diseases.

Perio Protect helps you treat gum disease at its source – the bacteria-filled pockets deep in your gums that can’t be reached by brushing and flossing. With daily 10-15 minute usage, research shows that Perio Tray™ therapy reduces chronic gum infections that contribute to systemic inflammation. This home care helps put gum disease into remission and prevent disease reoccurrence.
