Dr. Vaghari is a board-certified dentist with hundreds of satisfied patients from Arestin therapy. If you’re suffering from periodontal diseases, contact us today to book an appointment at Laguna Dental Studio.

What is Arestin®?

Arestin is a type of periodontal treatment that contains the antibiotic minocycline hydrochloride. It’s an FDA-approved medication that fights gum infection locally and helps treat adult periodontitis.
Arestin comes in the form of powder and is placed inside the gum pockets surrounding infected teeth. Here, it continues to release antibiotics for up to 90 days and keeps bacteria away from causing damage to your root and gums.

Our Arestin® Therapy Process at Laguna Dental Studio

At Laguna Dental Studio, we provide end-to-end periodontal treatments with Arestin to eliminate tartar and protect your gums against future infections. Here is what our Arestin Therapy process looks like:
  • Oral Evaluation: We start by assessing the severity of your periodontal infection, gum health, and pocket depth to determine Arestin eligibility.
  • Scaling & Root Planing: Our dentists conduct a scaling/root planing procedure to remove plaque and tartar and smooth root surfaces.
  • Arestin Application: Dr. Vaghari places Arestin® antibiotic microspheres into the infected pockets to target bacterial growth within the same appointment.
  • Post-Treatment Guidance: We educate you on how to care for your oral hygiene, diet, and any activity restrictions following Arestin treatment.
  • Follow-Up Monitoring: To assess healing and therapy success, we may schedule a follow-up appointment.
Your health is our priority. At Laguna Dental Studio, we factor your medical history to conduct scaling/root planing and Arestin Therapy with minimal pain and the best outcomes. Book an appointment with Dr. Vaghari today and achieve a healthier, stronger smile.
