Arestin

Periodontal disease is a serious infection under your gumline.

ARESTIN® (minocycline hydrochloride) is an antibiotic that kills the bacteria that cause the infection.



  1. It's placed directly in the infected areas—or "pockets"—in your gums.

  2. It's applied right after scaling and root planing, the dental procedure that disrupts stubborn plaque and bacteria below your gumline—where brushing and flossing can't reach.


ARESTIN® starts working quickly, right at the source of infection, and keeps fighting bacteria long after you leave the dental office.1,2

ARESTIN® fights infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and provides significantly better results than SRP alone for up to 90 days.3

Testimonials

Dr. Demeter is an absolutely wonderful doctor! Great bedside manner and positive personality! He worked with our daughter off and on over the last 3 years and was great with her. Our orthodontist was also very pleased with Dr. Demeter’s work. I would highly recommend him and if we ever need to go back I would not hesitate! Thank you!

Julie K.

I had such a positive experience with Dr. Demetter and his team. I understood the costs and care plan before my procedure. I was well taken care of during my procedure. I followed all after care instructions provided to ensure the best recovery and healing. I would highly recommend the team and facility to anyone of any age needing periodontal treatment.
