Great oral care is still one of the most challenging daily routines for a large population of American society. Complex oral and systemic health concerns can exacerbate the risks that contribute to oral health problems. Increased caries rates, periodontal disease, oral lesions, and mouth sores are among the most common complaints from patients. Fortunately, Oxyfresh’s soothing dental gels may be the solution to combat the most common oral complaints, providing relief and long-term protection.
Dentinal Hypersensitivity
According to the Academy of General Dentistry, 1 in 5 people experience hypersensitivity, ranging from mild to severe. Spontaneous pain due to temperature changes, especially cold, can be life altering.
This is often a driving force for patients to seek dental care and advice. They look to dental professionals for an easy-to-use and effective way to enjoy daily life and their favorite foods again without dental discomfort.
Gingival recession is often the culprit exposing the root of the tooth. Therefore, care must be taken to avoid harsh and abrasive products that can make the sensitivity worse or lead to damage. Use of a fluoride-based dental gel, such as Oxyfresh’s Fluoride Super Relief Dental Gel, can make a huge difference. It’s comprised of effective and gentle ingredients, including Oxygene®, xylitol, aloe and essential oils to help soothe and protect sensitive teeth and gingival tissue.
Periodontal Disease and Caries
Periodontal disease and dental caries are the most common oral diseases that affect most of the population. Combined with lifestyle choices and less-than-ideal home care, for many, it creates a perfect storm for disease progression. Worse, the often-silent periodontal disease can take hold before the individual is even aware that a problem exists.
In an independent study comparing the use of Oxyfresh Pro Relief Dental Gel in conjunction with periodontal treatment versus periodontal treatment alone, the benefits were telling. Combined with Oxyfresh Pro Relief Dental Gel, the reduction in pocket depth nearly DOUBLED compared to the periodontal therapy procedure alone. Additionally, there was a 73% reduction in the bleeding index compared to the procedure alone.
The at-home daily adjunct of applying dental gel, either directly with a brush or via carrier trays, has been proven to successfully boost the outcome of periodontal treatment.
Mouth Sores and Healing
Let’s face it: aphthous ulcers, surgical sites, and mouth sores are painful and can prevent individuals from eating and drinking. Oxyfresh dental gel solutions can be used for nearly every patient to aid in healing while helping to soothe the tissue, without the drying effects of alcohol. The combination of aloe, zinc and essential oils are complimented by Oxygene® to promote healing and hydration.
An Easy At-Home Solution
The key to any dental regimen is to find a solution that the patient will use! A complex routine decreases the odds of compliance long term. Individuals who have systemic considerations or take medications may be contraindicated for any use of alcohol-based products. Alcohol-free Fluoride Super Relief Dental Gel and Pro Relief Dental Gel offer at-home options that can be used by the whole family.
