DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Initial Visit:
Involves the recording of pocket depths, mobility, gum colour and taking an alginate impression of both arches. Once a plaster model has been fabricated from the impression, the soft thermoplastic blanks provided may be used to construct the trays. This should be done using a commercially available apparatus with a high temperature element and vacuum motor. A close-fitting tray that does not extend beyond the cervical margins is essential for a successful result. The individuals Patient Pack is then prepared for handover.
Second Vist:
Involves the fitting and checking of the thermoplastic trays. The patient should also be instructed on precautions and indications on use of the PerioPack system.
Subsequent Appointments:
The patient should be recalled in a month to review progress, observe and record changes to the gum tissue. Continue to recall patient as often as required until desired the outcome is achieved. The Perio Pack system may be used as an adjunct to standard chronic gum irritation for extended periods.
