Title:
METHOD OF PREVENTING BOTH CARIES AND PERIODONTAL DISEASE SIMULTANEOUSLY IN ONE PROCEDURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/049365
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The use of PREVORA brand topical dental solution (100 mg/ml chlorhexidine) sold by CHX Technologies, Inc., Toronto, Canada, to treat and/or prevent the advance of both dental decay (caries) and periodontal disease, simultaneously and in one procedure, that can easily be accomplished by a dental professional or a medical assistant. Chronic periodontitis and/or caries, the result of an imbalance of the microbial composition of the biofilm on the teeth, at the gum line or under the gum line, can be treated by the application of PREVORA, following standard oral cleaning and debriding of plaque at or below the gum line, to restore the balance of the biofilm to more normal, symbiotic composition. This treatment method is particularly useful in conjunction with the medical management of chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cardiovascular disease, and the like, which have been associated with periodontopathogens. As an example, the topical dental solution is applied to the teeth of an adult diabetic patient every 3 months for the first year, fol lowed by semi-annual single applications for as long as the patient remains at risk for either periodontal disease or caries.
