  1. What to Expect During and After Arestin Treatment ? Arestin treatment involves applying a specialized antibiotic powder directly into periodontal pockets, the spaces between your teeth and gums where harmful bacteria accumulate. It is commonly used alongside scaling and root planing (SRP), a deep-cleaning procedure designed to remove plaque and tartar from beneath the gum line.

  2. ? What Happens During Arestin Treatment? The Arestin Treatment is quick, painless, and minimally non- invasive procedure: 1. Initial Deep Cleaning Your dentist or hygienist will first perform scaling and root planing to remove plaque and bacteria. 2. Application of Arestin After the area is cleaned, Arestin treatment is placed into the periodontal pockets using a small, pre-loaded syringe. 3. No Needles or Incisions Arestin doesn’t require any cutting or sutures. The process is completely non-surgical. 4. Time-Saving Procedure Arestin treatment takes just a few minutes and can be done during your routine periodontal visit. How It Works ➖ Arestin contains minocycline hydrochloride, a broad-spectrum antibiotic in the form of a fine, yellow powder. It is applied directly into the infected gum pockets (Scaling and root planing) after SRP.

  3. ● The powder is delivered via a syringe and stays in the pockets, where it releases the antibiotic gradually over 21 days. ● It targets and eliminates bacteria that cause gum inflammation and bone loss. When Is Arestin Used? Dentists or periodontists recommend Arestin for patients who: ● Have moderate to severe periodontitis ● Have deep gum pockets (typically 5mm or more) ● Need additional support beyond SRP to control infection Arestin treatment is a powerful, site-specific antibiotic therapy used as part of a comprehensive approach to treating gum disease. When used alongside deep cleaning, it improves outcomes, helps control infection, and supports long-term oral health.

  4. Benefits of Arestin Treatment ➖ ● Minimally invasive — no surgery required ● Targets bacteria at the source ● Enhances SRP effectiveness ● Promotes faster healing and reduction in pocket depth ● Helps prevent future progression of gum disease Arestin treatment is a non-invasive, antibiotic therapy that supports deep cleaning procedures to reduce gum pocket depth and improve periodontal health. With minimal discomfort and proper aftercare, it significantly boosts recovery from gum disease.
