Clinical Feedback
I applied PerioStōm after scaling and root planing on a patient with 6-8mm pockets. I just saw her for her follow-up visit and the 8mm pocket is now a 3mm and the 6mm pocket is now a 4mm. Impressive product!
-J. Johnson, DDS
I was pleased to see significant pocket reduction after using PerioStōm! I was surprised to see a 2mm pocket reduction on two sites-- I had to probe a few times to be sure! I can't wait to offer this product to all of my perio patients!
-P. Wesche, RDH
With PerioStōm I can visibly see a change in the gum tissue. Not edematous but rather firm and light pink in color. Big difference from the initial visit.
