Beyond Bacteria: Rethinking How We Treat Gum Disease

About half of all Americans have gum disease, a chronic condition that can destroy the tissues holding your teeth in place. Untreated, it can lead to the loss of teeth - even healthy ones!While traditional periodontal therapy can be helpful, today, we have new and innovative ways of treating it even more effectively. That’s the focus of this latest episode of Your Mouth Matters, in which Dr. T talks with Judy Carroll about her innovative RPE protocol. (“RPE” stands for Regenerative Periodontal Endoscopy.)Judy is a world leader in advanced perioscopy. She’s helped thousands of patients with her innovative protocol that starts with a tiny fiber optic camera that’s inserted below the gumline so we can see what’s happening below the surface. This is combined with micro-ultrasonic piezo technology and the use of regenerative proteins to achieve excellent results in a non-aggressive way.  Listen now to learn all about RPE and the role it can play in helping you on your way back to healthy periodontal tissues to support healthy teeth and a healthy body alike. Learn more about Judy and RPE at PerioPeak Innovations: https://periopeak.com/how-rpe-works/
