When should a Perio-Aid be used?

The Perio-Aid is specifically designed to aid in the removal of plaque and debris from areas that are typically difficult to clean with standard toothbrushes or floss. Its unique design allows it to effectively clean occlusal surfaces, which are the chewing surfaces of the teeth, as well as cervical margins, which refer to the area where the gum meets the tooth.

Using a Perio-Aid in these locations helps ensure that both the occlusal pits and fissures, as well as the gingival margins near the base of the teeth, are properly cleaned to prevent plaque accumulation and periodontal disease. This makes it a valuable tool for maintaining good oral health, particularly in patients who may struggle with traditional brushing techniques or have specific dental issues that require more targeted cleaning measures.
