Quickly fight infection to protect your gums

ARESTIN® is an antibiotic keeps a high-level of antibiotic right at the site of the gum disease without exposing the rest of the body to antibiotics, directly fighting infection for 14 days.

Periodontal disease is a silent infection of the supporting structures (your gum and bones) that leads to permanent bone loss around your teeth, loss of gum support, spacing, recession, movement of the teeth, and chronic bad breath.

ARESTIN® is placed directly in the infected areas in your gums. It is applied right after scaling and root planing, a procedure that helps clear out stubborn plaque and bacteria below your gum line.

Brushing and flossing can’t reach every part of your mouth: that’s why gum disease is so common! ARESTIN® can help fight infection and inflammation for 30 days ¹ and is more effecting than scaling and root planing alone.
