Dental Directory – PerioChip

PerioChip is an innovative, easy to insert biodegradable chip containing 2.5 mg of chlorhexidine gluconate – an ideal non-antibiotic adjunct treatment to reduce pocket depth in patients with adult periodontitis. It has been clinically demonstrated to be more effective than RSD alone and well tolerated for periodontal pockets with a depth of 5 mm or more.

Chlorhexidine is released slowly over a period of 7 – 10 days. Its high and localised concentration eliminates 99.9% of bacteria in the pocket and suppresses the early recovery of the periodontal pathogenic biofilm for up to 11 weeks.
