Managing gum disease requires targeted treatment that goes beyond routine cleanings. At Euro Dental Studio, our periodontists and team use ARESTIN® in Ridgewood and Greenpoint, New York, as a powerful antibacterial therapy designed to reduce bacteria and inflammation in periodontal pockets. This localized antibiotic works directly at the site of infection, supporting deeper healing and improving gum health.
ARESTIN is commonly used alongside scaling and root planing to treat chronic periodontal disease. It helps reduce pocket depth and prevents bacteria from returning, giving your gums the opportunity to heal more effectively.
Why Choose ARESTIN?
ARESTIN is a time-released antibiotic that targets the root cause of gum disease: harmful bacteria below the gumline. Our periodontists and team use it as part of a comprehensive periodontal therapy plan. Benefits of ARESTIN treatment include:
- Minimally invasive and applied directly to infected sites
- Extended-release formula continues fighting bacteria for up to 21 days
- Reduces pocket depth and inflammation
- Supports healing and tissue regeneration
- Improves effectiveness of deep cleanings like scaling and root planing
Because ARESTIN is placed precisely where it is needed, it delivers high-impact results without affecting the rest of your body like an oral antibiotic might.
What To Expect From Treatment
The application process is simple and comfortable. After your deep cleaning, our periodontists will place ARESTIN powder directly into the periodontal pockets. The powder contains tiny microspheres filled with the antibiotic minocycline, which release medication gradually over time. There is no need for injections or sutures, and you can resume most normal activities right after your visit.
Patients often begin to notice improvements in gum health over the following weeks. Inflammation decreases, bleeding may subside and the risk of further tissue damage is reduced. Continued home care and regular dental visits will help maintain the results of your treatment and support long-term oral health.
ARESTIN is a powerful ally in fighting gum disease, especially for patients with early to moderate periodontal concerns. It offers a convenient and effective way to stop infection in its tracks and protect the structures that support your teeth.
