Let's talk about remin gel from perioprotect.
0:06
Remin gel is a hydroxyapatite rich gel
0:09
that features precursor compounds that bind quickly to tooth surfaces,
0:13
delivering bioavailable calcium and phosphate ions
0:16
to support enamel repair.
0:18
It's fluoride-free and contains no xylitol.
0:22
For patients seeking relief from sensitivity
0:25
and providers looking for a better way
0:27
for their patients to remineralize enamel, this is it.
0:32
Remin gel with perioprotect trays
0:34
worn just 15 minutes a day
0:36
has patients reporting sensitivity drops
0:39
of more than 50% in seven days.
0:42
And 80, yes, 80% in just 21 days.

All right Mark, hello.
2:38
It's so nice to be with you today.
2:40
Nice to be with you.
2:42
I really appreciate you being here.
2:44
We're going to talk a little bit about your experience
2:47
It's a new product we've recently launched.
2:48
But before we get into that,
2:50
tell us a little bit about your practice.
2:54
My name's Mark Eisberger.
2:55
I practice in Northern California,
2:56
just north of San Francisco.
2:58
I've practiced for 35 years.
3:01
And enjoy dentistry every day.
3:03
I do that in addition to practicing.
3:05
I was a dental educator for 30 years at University Pacific.
3:08
And I'm currently a speaker with catapult education.
3:11
So I wear a lot of hats in dentistry.
3:13
One of my favorite hats, though,
3:15
is being able to evaluate new products.
3:19
We are thrilled that you had that opportunity.
3:22
You were one of the very first dentists
3:24
to beta test remin gel and peri-protect trays.
3:28
And we're super excited about this product.
3:31
It was primarily designed for desensitization
3:35
and I'm always amazed at how many patients
3:37
really struggle with sensitivity.
3:39
But it's also been used for remineralizing teeth
3:43
and strengthening enamel.
3:45
In your practice, you primarily prescribed this
3:47
for patients with high sensitivity.
3:49
Tell us a little bit about some of your patients
3:52
and the results you've seen, please.
3:55
So I was really intrigued by the idea
3:58
that peri-protect was going to branch out
4:01
from just a peri-otreatment treatment
4:03
using the peri-ot gel into desensitizing treatment.
4:06
Because in my aging population
4:09
that has retained most of their teeth
4:12
or all of their teeth,
4:13
they do a bone loss and recession.
4:15
And one of the problems the face,
4:17
as we all age, is that root sensitivity.
4:21
And it can become quite debilitating.
4:23
You can be sensitive every time
4:25
you drink something that isn't darn near at body temperature.
4:29
Which is super unpleasant.
4:31
So there was always this population
4:34
that we would try different things
4:36
and they never really worked.
4:38
I mean, yeah, you can use sense of dying
4:40
and there's some efficacy there,
4:42
but they say discontinue it, you know,
4:44
after two to three weeks.
4:46
And so I was always looking for kind of the silver bullet
4:51
To the doctor because out there,
4:52
you've all had patients who walk in
4:55
and they need you to numb them up for a prophy.
4:57
Because they're so sensitive.
4:58
They can't even have their teeth scaled.
5:01
And though that type of...
5:03
Yeah, it impacts your practice.
5:06
So when PeriProtect launched Remin Gel,
5:08
I was the first to jump on it,
5:10
so I had love to try this.
5:13
And we were often running.
5:16
Using the Perio Trays,
5:17
we had patients doing 15-minute treatment a day
5:21
for a week and we saw a dramatic decrease in sensitivity.
5:25
Some of the patients like,
5:26
this is life changing.
5:27
I can now eat ice cream.
5:29
I can take in cold air.
5:31
Do all these things that they couldn't do before.
5:34
So we had a number of patients,
5:37
two of which at their cleanings
5:40
would have to have the water warmed.
5:42
They could use certain instruments
5:44
in contact with their teeth.
5:47
they were kind of difficult to deal with.
5:51
Yeah, very high maintenance.
5:54
hey, we've got this new product.
5:56
Would you like to be in a beta test?
5:58
We both jumped on right out of the gate.
6:01
And both of them saw their pain levels go
6:04
from a reported 9-10 down to a three,
6:09
In one case is zero.
6:10
And we're like, okay, this is profound.
6:13
And that was with a really short period of treatment
6:16
for 15 minutes a day.
6:18
So I was thrilled to see this kind of response
6:21
and really feel for those practices
6:23
that deal with sensitivity.
6:25
This is going to be a game changer.
6:27
And different than perio.
6:28
Because patients really don't necessarily know they have perio
6:32
or believe they have perio.
6:33
They make some recession.
6:35
But when they have sensitivity,
6:36
they're going to tell you,
6:37
my teeth hurt all the time.
6:39
So it's really neat.
6:42
I think as time goes on,
6:43
we'll have a product all that says,
6:46
make sure to put those trays back in for two or three days
6:50
in advance of your trophy.
6:51
In case there's any,
6:52
you know, issues coming up.
6:55
So I think it's a really fascinating product.
6:59
I was so pleased that you were able to test them
7:01
in the perio trays because you get that deep delivery
7:04
and you get that sustained contact time.
7:06
And so we believe it's both the medication
7:08
and the delivery that's working for these folks.
7:12
it turns out that they have decided,
7:14
okay, I'm going to take that bleeding seriously.
7:17
They already have the trays.
7:18
They can go back and use it for the multi-purpose.
7:24
I think it's a great product.
7:25
We saw just excellent results.
7:27
I mean, it was really mind blowing.
7:30
It's a little work like everything else works kind of.
7:32
But that wasn't the case.
7:33
It was pretty profound.
7:35
And one of your patients,
7:37
I believe it was your patient.
7:38
She remained sensitive free for six months.
7:43
Which is absolutely.
7:45
And she's still sensitive free to this point.
7:48
I've had a couple others that at about six months,
7:50
they start to feel little things,
7:52
but not like before.
7:53
And we say, well, great.
7:54
Just pop your trays back in.
7:55
And it may not be a week of treatment.
7:57
It may be one or two days.
8:00
So I think it's a very easy system to maintain
8:03
that coverage of the sensitivity protection.
8:08
That's so many other projects.
8:10
They're so short-lived.
8:11
This is just long lasting.
8:13
Well, thank you so much for sharing this.
8:15
Thank you for trying it out,
8:17
for testing something new.
8:20
And for all your service these years to dentistry,
8:23
I'm thrilled that we've had a chance to get to know you.
8:25
And through this experiment,
8:26
get to know you better.
8:29
Thank you so much, Tonya.
8:30
And I look forward to working with you guys again.
8:36
