Every second person over 40 is affected by periodontitis (periodontosis). It is one of the most common yet underestimated infectious diseases worldwide.

Early and targeted therapy can prevent not only impending tooth loss but also possible systemic secondary diseases of periodontitis.

The necessary early clarification of the germ spectrum through microbiological analyses is established, but until now, patient samples had to be sent to external laboratories. Many dentists, however, shy away from the long waiting times, considerable logistical effort, and associated high costs.

Quote from the IHCF* Consensus Paper (2010): Professional Recommendations for Microbiological Periodontal Diagnostics in Dental Practice.

“The weaknesses of currently available methods lie particularly in the high price for the patient and the significant time loss for therapy caused by waiting for test results from the lab1.”

With a reliable test result in just a few minutes, our fully automated PerioPOC Pro gives dentists the opportunity to offer this microbiological analysis directly in the practice for patients with an increased risk of periodontitis or peri-implantitis.

“As immediate as possible clarification of the bacterial spectrum at the dental chair (Chairside Diagnostics) is desirable1.”

Clinically relevant

Detection of the 5 most relevant periodontitis pathogens:

• Td: Treponema denticola
• Tf: Tannerella forsythia
• Pg: Porphyromonas
• Pi: Prevotella intermedia
• Aa: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans

The fully automated PerioPOC Pro Test has a detection limit of 10,000 bacteria per analysis, ensuring that low bacterial loads, which also occur in healthy individuals, are not interpreted as a positive result.

The use of the PerioPOC Pro Test system enables you to:

• Individual prophylaxis and targeted treatment of periodontal diseases and peri-implantitis
• Patient motivation for periodontal therapy and home oral hygiene
• Success and progress control
• Overall medical prevention (pregnancy/desire for children, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, cancer)
• Innovation and efficiency
