AIR-FLOW® Powder PERIO

With the Perio Powder, abrasive is good!

The new AIR-FLOW Powder PERIO does away with misconceptions and with harmful biofilm. With an average size of ~25 µm, the Original AIR-FLOW Powder PERIO has extra-fine grains with a particularly low density. As a result, the Original AIR-FLOW Method is effective from the gingival crest to the deepest periodontal pockets. In other words, it also acts where, under the cover of biofilm, billions of bacteria proliferate in subgingival areas to perform their destructive work.

- Micro-organisms proliferate and grow, the breeding ground develops its own protective layer
- Bacteria then separate and colonize additional areas
- Biofilm protects bacteria from drug therapy
- The immune defences of the body are powerless
- To prevent a bacterial invasion, the body triggers a process which breaks down bone tissue
- Implants are equally affected by biofilm; periimplantitis leads to the loss of implants

Abrasive is a good idea!

When used in conjunction with the PERIO-FLOW^® handpiece of the AIR-FLOW Master Piezon or with the AIR-FLOW handy PERIO with its PERIO-FLOW nozzle, this newly developed powder is perfect for subgingival prophylaxis. The Original AIR-FLOW Powder PERIO removes harmful biofilm – without any adverse effects on the tooth surface. Biofilm is gone. A misconception is laid to rest. For the benefit of your practice and your patients.

In the first picture, the white surfaces are parts of the biofilm located in a thick layer on the root surface.  Following treatment with Original AIR-FLOW^® Method, the biofilm is removed all the while leaving the surface clean and smooth down to the base of the periodontal pocket.
