Need a little jump starter to kick bad breath, gum disease or similar types of dental health problems in the pants?

Aktiv Oxigen might be the key or if not, at least a helpful boost.

Here is how it may help.

1. oxygen is the bane of anaerobic (oxygen shunning) bacteria. These anaerobic bacteria use a special metabolism. The byproduct of this metabolism is acid, toxins, VSF (volatile sulfur compounds) and more harmful substances – some being harmful to your tooth enamel and gum tissue. Some directly cause bad breath and some cause it from the disease process it initiates in your mouth.

2. Providing oxygen to these little beasties actually messes them up. They are designed to work in low oxygen environments, when you add oxygen to their pathetic lives, it tends to either kill them off or cause them to revert to ‘normal’, ‘aerobic’ metabolism. The same end effect is achieved, they stop secreting harmful chemicals.

David,

I went to the periodontist and he wanted to do laser surgery. I purchased the hydrofloss along with the mouthwash and toothpaste from Dr. Katz. My gums look good and feel great. (My gums never were red or swollen and they did not bleed, that is why I was dubious about the surgery).

Of course I was not going to have the surgery because I heard from another dentist that it could cause more damage than what it is worth.

I called my perodontics office and ask if there was an alternative to sugery. They told me that if my pockets were more that 3 mm that I could not clean the pockets myself. I would need a dental hygienist to clean them every 3 months and that my pockets probably would not get any smaller but the hygienist could keep them much cleaner than I could.

They did not tell me about the hydrofloss but I heard it from a friend of mine who is a dental hygienist. That is how I learned about you.

Isn’t it strange they don’t want to tell you about using the hydrofloss?

I’m using the hydrofloss and it works great. I believe my pockets are much smaller and I am going to keep track of the sizes when I get my teeth cleaned next week.

Thanks for all the information about gum disease.

Response: Thanks Lynn! I dare to say that you are right on with this experience. Thank you for sharing. I hope that other’s can learn and benefit from what you have shared.

Many people have often wondered, who was the first periodontist? Upon hearing this question, many other people have wondered, what is a periodontist? Well, we are going to discuss those questions and many more throughout the course of this article, to the best of our abilities concerning the documented evidence.

We know for a fact that periodontal disease has been a problem for people all throughout history. You see, as a specialty, periodontics – the study of periodontal disease, periodontitis, et cetera – has a very long and very rich history. That history spans the whole of civilization.

There is evidence that even back in prehistoric times, our ancestors had problems with their teeth. For example, people in the early Egyptian and Middle Eastern cultures had oral health problems. How do we know this? Well, for one thing, there is written evidence and skeletal remains which show the existence of periodontal disease.

In histories pertaining to ancient Chinese and Indian cultures, there exists evidence of periodontal diseases like scurvy. Within those same histories, there were actually pieces of advice pertaining to the importance of cleaning one’s teeth! The evidence piles up through history, from ancient Greek and Roman to Renaissance Europe. The diseases themselves were well described in the documents available, as well treatments and methods of prevention.

However, the first periodontist came quite a bit later – not until the early twentieth century, in fact. Now, it stands to reason that periodontists likely existed before this; they simply were not documented. They may have gone by a different title. Around about 1914, however, all available accounts seem to suggest that Dr. Grace Rogers may well have been the first practicing periodontist.

Given the long history of documented periodontal diseases and care, however, it only stands to reason that, in the equally long history of dentistry, other people must have practiced periodontology. We simply do not have the records of those possible forebears.

Not sure how this one slipped past my radar until now, but it happens sometimes. I always try to tell you about the good deals out there.

There is a sale right now, buy 2 get one free. Here are the products that are on sale:

–> http://tinyurl.com/cka9c8

You can get some good deals now, but the sale is ending soon.

Specifically for gum disease, look for anything labeled Perio Therapy -

These are the gum disease fighting mouthwashes and toothpastes.

What is special about them?

They have pecially formulated oxygenated compounds.

If you have read my book, then you already know about the Perio Therapy formulas.

If not – The bacteria responsible for gum disease are anaerobic in nature. Oxygen kills them.

There are very few mouthwashes on the market that have oxygenated compounds in them. Perio Therapy is one of them.

Perio Therapy formulas also contain other powerful ingredients such as zinc and pyrophosphates – pyrophosphates are for stopping / reducing plaque build up.

And you’ll be happy to know that Therabreath sells my book as well. (though it is not part of the special)

Check out the Perio Therapy and other products on special at:

http://tinyurl.com/cka9c8 <–

Hint: They have lots of bad breath fighting products too – including those for fighting your dog’s bad breath!

But hurry, the counter on their website says the sale ends in less than 14 hours at the time I sent this message was posted (11:33 AM 4/30/2009)

Let me know if you have any questions!

Tip: Try using one of the coupons at http://www.therabreathcoupon.com to increase your savings further.

I’m not 100% sure that works, but I think it might… Can’t hurt to try.
