Periodontal disease is an infection below the gum line. ARESTIN® (minocycline hydrochloride) is an antibiotic placed directly into infected periodontal pockets after scaling and root planing.
- Targets bacteria in pockets that home care cannot reach.
- Applied after scaling and root planing to disrupt plaque and bacteria below the gums.
- Works locally at the site of infection as part of a comprehensive periodontal plan.
ARESTIN is a prescription therapy used as directed by your dentist. Ask whether it is appropriate for your situation.
