Customized Precision Fit
The innovative Perio Protect Method™ utilizes the patented, non-invasive Perio Tray™ with a customized sealing system that is proven to deliver medication deep into periodontal pockets, where toothbrushes, rinse and floss fail to reach.
These customized trays end the cycle of disease by extending treatment from the dental chair to the comfort of home. They’re also the only customized periodontal medicament carriers with FDA clearance and years of research to support reliable results.

Our methodology breeds results. Not bacteria.
The Perio Protect Method combines in-office procedures with Perio Tray homecare for minimally invasive, comprehensive treatment. It is backed by technology, and the results are proven through research.
Where Other Methods Fall Short
Brushing, rinsing and flossing are important. But these efforts fail to reach deep below the gum line where bacteria thrive—in the periodontal pockets.
Traditionally, deep cleanings, known as root planing and scaling, or surgery have been required to reach deep into the pockets to treat advanced gum disease. Scaling involves numbing the gums and scraping the tooth surface to remove bacteria, which quickly repopulates. Surgery traditionally requires cutting the tissues to lift a flap to be able to clean the root surfaces.
Antibiotics are sometimes prescribed to fight bacteria. Immediate results can be promising, but they are often only temporary. And over-prescription of antibiotics can compromise the efficacy of the drug and also cause significant side effects like C. diff.
Perio Tray™ Therapy
Perio Protect homecare is doctor-prescribed and patient-applied. When you receive your custom Perio Tray™, your dental team will show you how to place a small amount of prescription medicine in each tray. You wear it for just minutes each day. Your dentist will also design a treatment plan specifically for you, as the duration and frequency varies for each patient.
The trays are designed with a patented seal to place and hold medication where it is most effective—at the site of infection deep below the gums. A low concentration of hydrogen peroxide gently and thoroughly cleanses the periodontal pockets, combatting bacteria, whitening your teeth and freshening your breath.
Non-invasive Perio Tray™ therapy compliments in-office treatment, supporting more successful outcomes for long-term health.
While there is no “cure” for gum disease, it can be managed with daily treatment to prevent pathogenic bacteria from recolonizing. When the desired results have been achieved, your dentist will revise your treatment plan to maintain the results.
The Perio Protect Method is an appealing, minimally invasive option for patients with gingivitis and chronic periodontitis. It also keeps the gums healthy around crowns and implants for optimal restorative care with long lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is Perio Protect?
A. Perio Protect is a comprehensive, non-invasive method for treating gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis). It uses custom-made Perio Trays™ (similar to a mouthguard but with a patented sealing system) to deliver prescription medication directly into periodontal pockets below the gum line, where brushing, flossing, and rinsing can't reach effectively. This helps fight bacterial biofilms, reduce inflammation, and promote healthier gums, often in combination with professional cleanings.
Q. How does Perio Protect work?
A. The Perio Protect Method combines in-office procedures (like scaling and root planing) with at-home tray therapy. Your dentist takes impressions to create custom Perio Trays. You place a small amount of medicated gel (such as Perio Gel) into the trays and wear them for 10–15 minutes per session. The trays' seal delivers the gel deep into gum pockets to kill bacteria, oxygenate the area, and support healing. Many patients use it 1–3 times daily, as prescribed.
Q. Who is a good candidate for Perio Protect?
A. Perio Protect is ideal for patients with gingivitis, early to moderate periodontitis, bleeding gums, gum pockets, or those wanting to avoid or delay more invasive treatments like surgery. It's especially helpful for maintaining results after professional cleanings or for people with persistent gum issues despite good oral hygiene. Your dentist will evaluate if it's right for you during an exam.
Q. How long do I need to use Perio Trays?
A. Treatment duration and frequency vary by individual and severity of gum disease—your dentist customizes the plan. Most patients start with 10–15 minutes per session, 1–3 times daily. Initial intensive phases may last weeks to months, followed by maintenance. Many see improvements in bleeding and inflammation within the first few weeks, with ongoing use to prevent recurrence.
Q. What are the benefits of Perio Protect?
A. Benefits include reduced gum inflammation and bleeding, healthier periodontal pockets, fresher breath, whiter teeth (from the gel's gentle action), and often less need for surgery or repeated invasive procedures. It's comfortable, easy to use at home, and supports overall oral and systemic health (as untreated gum disease links to issues like heart disease and diabetes).
Q. Is Perio Protect as effective as surgery?
A. In many cases of mild to moderate gum disease, Perio Protect can be highly effective and may reduce or eliminate the need for surgery by aggressively yet gently managing bacteria. It's not a replacement for surgery in advanced cases, but it complements other treatments and helps maintain results. Research and clinical use show positive outcomes for reducing pocket depths and inflammation.
Q. How much does Perio Protect cost?
A. Costs vary by provider, location, and treatment plan (including custom trays, gel refills, and office visits). Many dental practices offer it as an affordable alternative to more invasive options. Check with your dentist for a personalized quote—some insurance plans cover portions as periodontal maintenance or therapy.
Q. Does insurance cover Perio Protect?
A. Coverage depends on your insurance plan and provider. Very few plans cover Perio Trays or related therapy under periodontal treatment codes, while others may classify it as elective or out-of-pocket. Many patients find it cost-effective long-term.
Q. Are there any side effects with Perio Protect?
A. Most patients experience no significant side effects. Some notice mild temporary gum sensitivity or minor irritation when starting (similar to other peroxide-based products). These usually resolve quickly. Always follow your dentist's instructions and report persistent issues.
Q. Can I use Perio Trays for teeth whitening only?
A. No—Perio Trays are prescription devices designed specifically for delivering medicated gel to treat gum disease. Using non-prescribed whitening gels or other substances can ruin the tray's seal and effectiveness. Stick to the gel recommended by your provider.
Q. How do I care for my Perio Trays?
A. Rinse trays with cool water after each use, brush gently with a soft toothbrush if needed, and store them in their case. Avoid hot water, bleach, or dishwashers, as these can warp the trays. Your dental team will provide full care instructions.
