Measuring Efficacy of Periodontal Therapies in reducing Peri-Implantitis Risks: A Scientific Approach Research Protocols

PROBLEM

Peri-implantitis is a top cause of implant failure and is even more complex to treat than periodontitis
Incidence of peri-implantitis is 28.6% in patients with periodontal disease history vs 5.8% without history of gum disease.1 500,000 patients could be facing peri-implantitis 10+ years post surgery.
70% of Americans have periodontal disease doubling risk for heart disease, diabetes, pre-term birth, cancer even Alzeimers’.
Periodontal disease is the primary cause of tooth loss in patients over 40 years old.
Chlorhexidine increases heart disease risks within 1 day of using twice.2

PURPOSE

Many studies show the efficacy of one therapy or homecare product but periodontitis and peri-implantitis are multi-causal.
This study measures efficacy of a combination of perio therapies used in a defined protocol and includes:
Demographics, Health history, Family Health History, Bacteria Diagnosis
Scaling and Root Planing
Clean Kiss Organic Swish Mouthwash, Scrub toothpaste, Spray breath refresher, Support Anti-Inflammatory and Bone Nutraceuticals.
Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy
30 Second Smile Scrub Brush
Hydrofloss oral irrigator

The study will also determine how well organic botanical home care compares to control groups.
