“Calculus dissolution based oral rinse like Periogen® (Periogen Company-USA) with key ingredients of Tetrapotassium Pyrophosphate (TKPP), Sodium Tripolyphosphate (STPP), Sodium Bicrbonate, Sodium Fluoride and Citric Acid seems to be potential oral rinse for suppressing the mineralization of dental plaque when used on regular basis as an adjunct to tooth brushing”
“The results of the present study are intriguing and should be interpreted from a clinical perspective. Dentist/hygienists should prescribe anticalculus oral rinse (Periogen®) between the professionally cleaning of teeth. This could be a practice that would decrease the bio load in the oral cavity specially the new calculus deposits that serves as reservoir to dental plaque”
“Regular home use of oral rinse with anti-calculus properties will be effective to prevent mineralization and further suppress calculus formation in order to prevent gingival inflammation”
“Technology and research today provide openness to safe, affordable and effective anti-calculus Mouth rinse (Like Periogen®) that can be a potential turning point in maintaining oral hygiene”
"A recently conducted clinical study proved that mouth rinse (Periogen®) containing tetrapotassium pyrophosphate and sodium tripolyphosphate as the anticalculus agent provides a clinically relevant reduction in calculus formation"
“Calculus dissolution based Periogen® mouthrinse provided clinically significant reduction in calculus formation in subjects with zirconium dioxide and titanium dental implants when used twice daily for 6 months as an adjunct to toothbrushing”
“From the public health point of view, Periogen® mouthwash can serve as a good alternative to avoid alcohol based products or those with an artificial preservatives”
“Periogen® mouth rinse play a significant role in plaque control; accelerate in gingival wound healing by increasing turnover of superficial cell number”
"Periogen effectively reduced the clinical symptoms of plaque-induced gingivitis, and had a statistically significant effect on the reduction of clinical and salivary concentration parameters when compared to 0.12% Chlorhexidine."
“Periogen used in this study was effective in controlling plaque and calculus with a statistically significant manner both with and without professional intervention when used regularly”
