The OraVital\u00a0System: 5 Steps to Predictable Patient Outcomes<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The patent-pending OraVital System is safe, easy, painless, and highly effective in the treatment of gingivitis, periodontal disease, halitosis and peri-implantitis. Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n

Dentists or hygienists working within an OraVital\u00a0Certified Clinic, conduct a thorough examination of the patient\u2019s mouth for any visible dental problems. They will also ask the patient about their detailed medical history to document whether they have any existing medical conditions or risk factors that could be contributing to their gum disease and\/or breath odor.<\/p>\n

Next, the OraVital Certified Clinician will carefully follow the OraVital System\u2019s five steps as they have been specially-trained to do.<\/p>\n

1) Evaluation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The OraVital Certified Clinician will conduct multiple objective tests to determine health or disease that include biofilm disclosing, measuring periodontal pockets and recording bleeding on probing using the papillary bleeding score.<\/p>\n

After examining the clinical results of the tests mentioned above, and the patient\u2019s medical\/dental history, the OraVital Certified Clinician may recommend microbial sampling, to accurately discern the type and concentration of the pathogen(s) causing the oral infection.<\/p>\n

OraVital microbiological sampling is conducted in the following manner for Biofilm DNA:<\/p>\n

Using a swab, the clinician will take samples of bacteria from around the patient\u2019s gums, tongue, throat and saliva. These are sent to the OraVital microbiology lab, which conducts highly advanced\u00a0microbial analysis<\/a>\u00a0to identify the specific pathogens that are causing gum disease, halitosis and potentially putting your patient at risk for a variety of medical conditions.<\/p>\n

2) Treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to recommended periodontal\/gum care if the OraVital microbiology lab report indicates there are harmful microorganisms present in the patient\u2019s mouth that are causing gum disease and\/or breath problems, the dentist will be able to prescribe an\u00a0OraVital Antibiotic rinse and an OraVital Antimicrobial Rinse <\/a>that is specifically-targeted to killing the pathogens at the root of the oral infection.<\/p>\n

This is followed by an antimicrobial rinse for another two weeks to rebalance the patient\u2019s oral biofilms to a healthy state.<\/p>\n

3) Re-Evaluation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following initial treatment, the patient is recalled to re-evaluate their gums and\/or breath by comparing before and after results.<\/p>\n

4) Maintenance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Regular dental hygiene appointments and good oral home care will help the patient maintain a healthy mouth. Along with regular brushing and cleaning between the teeth, using an\u00a0OraVital\u00a0Maintenance Rinse<\/a>\u00a0daily will help the patient prevent recurring breath and gum problems.<\/p>\n

5) Monitor<\/strong><\/p>\n

OraVital Certified Clinics schedule regular appointments with their patients to check for bleeding or other gum problems. Additional OraVital microbial testing<\/a>\u00a0is recommended if the patient continues experiencing gum disease or bad breath.<\/p>\n

If harmful bacteria are increasing, oral infection could return. It\u2019s always easier to address any potential problems before this happens.<\/p>\n

We know your patients\u2019 health and self-confidence are important to you! \u00a0You\u2019ll be happy to know that the OraVital System has an average clinical success rate of 85% in treating bad breath and mild to moderate gum disease.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, when used as directed by a participating OraVital Certified Clinic, these results are guaranteed. Read about\u00a0The OraVital\u00a0Results Guarantee<\/a><\/p>\n

Why Test Your Patients for Oral Bacteria?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We recommend microbial testing to accurately determine what your patients\u2019 risk factors are and which bacteria are present, so that you can treat oral infections more specifically and successfully.<\/p>\n

This is comparable to having a cholesterol test \u2013 It takes the guesswork out of your diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>\n

When OraVital Certified Clinicians are armed with the lab results of an OraVital Microbial Test, they can achieve improved treatment outcomes and better oral systemic health for their patients.<\/p>\n

Knowing what is causing the oral infection is absolutely necessary to get predictable and positive results for treating gum disease and halitosis.<\/p>\n

OraVital Microbial Analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n

Accurately diagnosing the problems with your patients\u2019 breath or gums is essential for effectively treating them.<\/p>\n

Proper diagnosis involves identifying the types and amounts of bacteria present in the mouth. This enables dental clinicians to accurately determine if the patient is at risk for or currently has an oral infection. It also provides information that\u2019s helpful in determining the best treatment if the patient has an oral infection.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0patent-pending\u00a0OraVital System<\/a>\u00a0offers two highly accurate, simple and affordable oral microbial analyses. The bacteria causing gum disease and breath odour don\u2019t just live below the gums. The OraVital System is the only protocol that can analyze the whole mouth testing the saliva, above and under the gums, tongue and throat for whole mouth analysis!<\/p>\n

Without this information, you can miss important specific areas that need treatment. Furthermore, knowing which bacteria are present allows OraVital Certified Clinicians to chose among OraVital\u2019s targeted antibiotic particulate rinses \u2013\u00a0 a swish and spit delivery system which delivers powerful whole mouth saliva concentrations of medication to kill the pathogenic bacteria throughout the oral cavity \u2013 not just below the gums.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s How It Works:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

BiofilmDNA\u2122<\/u>\u00a0is a whole-mouth biofilm sampling technique that collects specimens under and above the gum, saliva, tongue and throat. It uses the most advanced qPCR technology to identify the exact species and number of bacteria in the sample.<\/p>\n

BiofilmGS\u2122<\/u>\u00a0(Gram stain) is a site specific (6 sites) biofilm test whereby the dental clinician will swab the teeth, tongue and throat to capture biofilm samples and places them on separate sections of a glass microscope slide.\u00a0The slide is sent to the OraVital microbiology lab for the types and number of bacteria, as well as yeast, parasites and white blood cells, which can indicate the presence of oral infections.\u00a0After viewing the samples, the lab\u2019s trained microbiologists send a detailed report to your dental office.<\/p>\n

The reports includes information about the types and concentration of microorganisms and recommend an antibiotic rinse targeting those bacteria present. OraVital Certified Clinicians use these reports to select the most effective antibiotic rinse to restore the balance of healthy microorganisms in the patient\u2019s mouth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
