Dr. Katz has created a wonderful brand of products called Perio Therapy. I have written about these products in my book: What You Should Know about Gum Disease, ISBN: 978-0981485508.
There are a number of reasons why this is a good set of products. The mouthwash is pH balanced. This is helpful for a number of different reasons. First of all, it is protective of your dental enamel. Low pH mouthwashes can chemically harm your tooth enamel.
Another reason why pH balance is important for a mouthwash is because the bacteria that cause gum disease also like a more acidic environment. By rinsing with a nice pH balanced mouthwash, you are doing yourself a favor there and you are doing even more towards inhibiting the anaerobes that are responsible for causing gum disease.
In addition, the mouthwash itself contains oxygenated compounds - the anaerobes (anaerobic bacteria) do not like oxygen, that is why they are called anaerobes (they ’shun’ oxygen). This boost of oxygen can aid in keeping the population down to a minimum.
The benefits do not stop there. The Perio Therapy products also contain zinc which is believed to support the health of gum tissue. This mouthwash also contains tea tree oil - believed to have anti-bacterial properties as well as essential oil of spearmint which is also believed to have anti-bacterial capabilities.
All-in-all if you have gum disease, these Perio Therapy products are likely to help you. This is why I like them. Next: Click Here to Check out Perio Therapy Products and learn more about them for yourself.
