Arestin

Periodontal disease is a serious infection under your gumline. ARESTIN® (minocycline hydrochloride) is a topical antibiotic indicated in the treatment of recurring localized periodontal infection.

  • It’s placed directly in the infected areas – or “pockets” – in your gums.

ARESTIN® starts working quickly, right at the source of infection, and keeps fighting bacteria long after you leave the dental office. 1,2 ARESTIN® fights infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and provides significantly better results than scaling and root planing alone for up to 90 days.3
