Dental Tribune U.S. Edition | April 2014 a9Industry News Ad Oral cleansing and care line launched TRIOLOGY™ Professional Oral Cleans- ing & Care, a line of biologic debriding rinses and serums designed to enhance dental procedures and patient comfort, has recently been introduced to the U.S. dental market. The products, sold exclu- sively through dental and medical prac- tices, is manufactured by NOWsystem Inc. TRIOLOGY Debriding Rinse and TRIOL- OGY Debriding Serum deliver cleansing powered by Tritiserum™, a proprietary blend of biologic ingredients and carb- amide peroxide. The patent-pending formulations integrate with saliva to im- prove removal of bacteria, fungi, debris and irritants, working both supragingi- vally and subgingivally. According to the company, this cleansing action, coupled with a balancing of the pH, increases the potential for accelerated healing and re- duced pain, inflammation and infection. The rinse is available in eight-ounce and two-ounce bottles, as well as a one- ounce spray for situations when rinsing The TRIOLOGY line’s patent- pending formulations integrate with saliva to improve removal of bacteria, fungi, debris and irritants, working both supragingi- vally and subgingivally.

TRIOLOGY Debriding Rinse can be used for days or weeks prior to dental procedures to lessen inflammation or infection, or at the beginning of in-office exams to reduce airborne spread of bac- teria. Additionally, it is intended for use dur- ing and following any dental or hygiene procedures likely to involve bleeding, de- bridement or supragingival oral wounds, and following dental examinations and procedures to reduce pain. The rinse, particularly the spray ver- sion, can also be used by patients with dry mouth, xerostomia, hal- itosis and metal- lic taste disorder. The viscosity of TRIOLOGY Debriding Serum enables the product to stay where it is placed, so the microfoam- ing action of the carbamide peroxide can flush out bacteria, debris and irritants that can cause gum infection and inflam- mation. It is intended for use as an adjunct to the following dental and hygiene proce- dures for removal of debris and irritants: extractions, root planing, routine pro- phylaxis, periodontal scaling, gingival curettage, core retention techniques, im- plant and crown procedures, and opera- tive and postoperative procedures. According to Dale Winetroub, NOW- system co-founder and COO, among the studies documenting the efficacy of the TRIOLOGY formulations is an exten- sive antimicro- bial analysis by Indiana University in which TRIOLOGY Debriding Serum and Rinse were shown to have roughly double the germ kill power of chlorhexidine gluconate. He also noted that because TRIOLOGY De- briding Rinse and TRIOLOGY Debriding Serum formulations contain only biolog- ic ingredients and carbamide peroxide, there is no need to limit the frequency of usage. TRIOLOGY Debriding Rinse and TRIOL- OGY Debriding Serum are currently dis- tributed by Goetze Dental and Burkhart Dental.
