Dexcel Pharma Technologies' PerioChip for dental professionals is now available in the U.S. market through its new website.
The product is also available through Adrian Pharmaceuticals.
PerioChip is an antiseptic, not an antibiotic. The biodegradable chip, which contains 2.5 mg of chlorhexidine gluconate, has been shown to be an effective and safe adjunctive treatment for patients with adult periodontitis with a pocket depth of 5 mm or more, when used with scaling and root planning, according to the company.
For a limited time, PerioChip 20-chip packs are available online for a savings of up 27%. Discounted pricing for one pack is $355.50, two packs $629, and three packs $868.
