15 minutes is ideal. You get a good bacterial kill rate and the most exposure to oxygen at 15 minutes. If you are short on time, 10 minutes is good. If you wear the Perio Trays® with the Perio Gel®  for longer than 15 minutes, it doesn’t help you or hurt you. Hydrogen peroxide breaks down into oxygen and water. 

Doctors prescribe wearing times. Please call your doctor to ask about your specific conditions. If you have Perio Trays® from Perio Protect and have had to delay your regular care due to the coronavirus outbreak, twice a day is likely to be recommended until you can get into the dental office for periodontal maintenance therapy. If you have been wearing your trays once a day, continuing the daily treatment is important to keep inflammation and infection at bay. 

The frequency of usage will determine how long a tube of gel will last:

When wearing 1x/day,  a tube of Perio Gel will last approximately 6 weeks.

When wearing 2x/day, a tube of Perio Gel will last approximately 3 weeks.

When wearing 3x/day, a tube of Perio Gel will last approximately 2 weeks. 

 A Perio Gel Sales product has a 24-month shelf life. 

The Perio Tray® is the only tray cleared by the FDA to deliver medication deep into periodontal pockets, the spaces between teeth and gums. Research shows that the Perio Tray® holds medication deep under the gums long enough to address infections causing gum disease, reducing bleeding and inflammation and decreasing the depth of the pockets. Authentic Perio Trays® have the blue Perio Protect logo embedded in the material. Perio Trays® offer excellent homecare and are always used in conjunction with the necessary in-office treatments. Happy side effects include fresher breath and whiter teeth.
