Where:

OrthoProtect can be found in dental and orthodontic offices. It is a professional product sold only through dental professionals. This rinse is recommended for patients in brackets or aligners to help keep tooth surfaces clean, reduce the occurrence of demineralization, and aid in strengthening of the tooth structure.

When: 

For everyday use to assist patients receiving orthodontic treatment in achieving better results and a healthier mouth long term. Provides gentle cleansing of the oral cavity with no burning or discomfort and provides additional relief from mouth sores.

Why:

Orthodontic patients struggle to keep their mouths clean. Because of poor homecare, patients end up with decalcification, decay and gum disease. It is important to provide these patients with easy, simple tools for use so that they do not experience the common complications compromising their treatment outcomes.

How:

OrthoProtect is scientifically proven to help reduce plaque, aid in remineralization, and improve overall gingival health. It utilizes a 2-bottle system to create Activated Chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide has the ability to kill bacteria (including S.Mutans), viruses, fungi, and break up biofilm. It uses a combination of additional ingredients including calcium lactate, poloxamer 407, and xylitol. This merger of ingredients will help to kill decay causing bacteria, pathogens that cause gum disease, and also increase calcium ions in the saliva to strengthen the teeth. Furthermore, it minimizes plaque accumulation, providing patients with improved homecare. By reducing these risk factors we can optimize the effectiveness in our approach for maintaining and enhancing patient’s oral health.
