Scientific Summary - evidence-based gum disease therapy
Gum disease and peri-implantitis are common inflammatory conditions in dentistry, leading to tooth and implant loss. The latest research shows that traditional treatments like scaling and root planing may not be enough to stop inflammation and promote tissue regeneration. Horch (2018) introduces OXYSAFE®, a non-antibiotic approach based on active oxygen technology by Ardoz Healthcare International, primarily marketed in Germany by Hager & Werken.

Mechanism of Action of Active Oxygen
OXYSAFE® utilizes Ardoz Healthcare International's patented active oxygen method, which oxidizes protein structures in bacterial biofilms, effectively neutralizing anaerobic bacteria in deep gum and peri-implant pockets. Unlike chlorhexidine and antibiotics, this technology penetrates biofilms without disrupting the oral flora or promoting resistance development.

Clinical Effects and Scientific Support
Studies report significant benefits, such as reduced pocket depth, less inflammation, and improved gum health. Independent research, including studies at Radboud University Nijmegen, demonstrates a reduction in harmful oral bacteria and an average 56% decrease in pocket depth. In cases of peri-implantitis, partial bone re-integration was observed in approximately 75% of patients, even among smokers. Moreover, over 80% of diabetic patients with chronic wounds showed clear wound healing.

Biocompatibility and Patient Safety
OXYSAFE® offers high biocompatibility, being non-cytotoxic and free of peroxides or radicals, safeguarding blood cells, mucosal cells, and bone cells. This allows safe application in initial and maintenance phases of gum and peri-implant therapy.
...
Two-Pronged Treatment Approach
The treatment plan comprises professional application of OXYSAFE® Perio Protection Gel by the dentist directly in affected pockets, followed by patient use of OXYSAFE® Liquid Mouthwash at home. This dual strategy promotes long-term gum stability and reduces infection recurrence.

Relevance to Modern Dentistry
This oxygen-based therapy meets the demand for minimally invasive, evidence-based, and antibiotic-sparing treatments in periodontics and implantology. OXYSAFE® provides a scientifically proven alternative for dental professionals, marrying clinical effectiveness with patient safety.
