ST. LOUIS, MO, November 5, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Guardian Dentistry Partners, a prominent Dental Partnership Network, and Perio Protect, innovators in non-invasive periodontal treatment, are celebrating the success of their partnership in advancing patient care. Their collaborative efforts have led to outstanding outcomes for patients with persistent periodontal disease, as recognized by a recent Orkos Award for excellence in case study.
The award-winning case, submitted by Ashling Wilson, RDH, a hygienist at a Guardian Dentistry Partners office in Northern Virginia, exemplifies this success. Wilson, a seasoned professional with over 25 years in dentistry, utilized Perio Protect’s advanced home care system to address a complex periodontal case. Despite prior treatments, including scaling and root planing, laser therapy, and localized antibiotics, the patient’s progress had stalled. Within three weeks of adding the Perio Protect Method®, however, the patient showed an 80% reduction in bleeding on probing—a significant milestone.
“What stands out about this case is that Perio Protect provided the breakthrough we needed after other therapies had plateaued,” Wilson explained. “This approach transformed the patient’s outlook, replacing resignation with a sense of hope and empowerment.”
This achievement underscores Perio Protect’s effectiveness in enhancing at-home periodontal management, bridging the gap between office visits and supporting long-term oral health. It also highlights Guardian Dentistry Partners’ dedication to adopting innovative, patient-centered technologies to elevate care outcomes.
“At Guardian, our mission is rooted in building a positive culture, fostering strong relationships, and partnering with leading providers who share our values,” stated Jeremy Smith, BSDH, RDH, Director of Dental Hygiene at Guardian Dentistry Partners. “Ashling’s commitment to finding new methods to enhance patient care truly reflects our core values.”
Echoing this sentiment, Tanya Dunlap, PhD, Vice President of Perio Protect, said, “We’re thrilled to see Perio Protect making such a positive difference in Guardian practices. This collaboration highlights how our home care solutions complement in-office treatments to achieve superior patient outcomes.”
Guardian Dentistry Partners, now operating over 164 practices in 11 states, plans to expand the use of Perio Protect across its network, reinforcing their high standard of care and commitment to innovation.
“As we grow, we’re dedicated to a culture of continuous improvement,” Smith added. “Collaborations like this enable us to deliver effective, science-based treatments that benefit our patients.”
