The PerioVive veterinary medical device is a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel that comes in a pre-filled tissue applicator for convenient and precise delivery. Studies show that a single dose of HA post-procedure accelerates tissue healing, increases bone formation, and reduces probing pocket depth across a wide range of dental settings.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring biomaterial that has been proven safe and effective in both humans and dogs for a variety of indications, including dentistry. Periodontal applications of HA have shown statistically significant efficacy in 5+ canine studies and 100+ human studies. Additionally, HA may prevent progression to more severe periodontal disease and reduce required tooth extractions.
Not only is the data impressive, but the design of the product -- choice of syringe, viscosity of the gel -- makes application a breeze!
The data looks really compelling, and hyaluronic acid is as safe as it gets -- I think this could catch fire.
PerioVive appears to be a very useful adjunct to treating periodontal disease in dogs. In my hands, it fills a clinical void in treating both individual teeth with marginal pocket depths that don't fully meet clinical criteria for extraction and in surgical wound healing of teeth extracted as treatment of more advanced periodontal disease.
