Thinking outside the box
By today Staff
n Stepping out of one’s comfort zone
can be a good thing sometimes, and
here at the American Academy of Periodontology 105th annual meeting,
there are plenty of opportunities to try
things you never have before.
Want to get more in touch with your
creative side? Head over to the Perio
Park (booth No. 150) and unleash your
Chicago-inspired inner graffiti artist
at the Graffiti Wall set up for attendees
to take a break from all the analytical
thinking and express a bit more righthemisphere creativity. (You can also
take a moment to relax, continue conversations with colleagues, charge
electronic devices and buy some food
and beverages while you are there.)
Want to take a new look at solving
old problems? Many of the exhibitors
are offering new products and technology that do just that.
Denta-Cool at booth No. 1211 is
offering up its Denta-Cool Mouthpiece,
Attendees to the American Academy of Periodontology 105th annual meeting are all smiles Sunday afternoon.

The intraoral cryotherapy
device for the entire mouth
Reduce dental pain
and swelling from
inside the mouth
with Denta-Cool
By Denta-Cool Staff
n Dental professionals have recognized post-surgical oral cryotherapy
to be an effective strategy to manage pain and discomfort in patients.
Denta-Cool™, the first intraoral cryotherapy device with the ability to
cool the entire mouth uniformly from
the inside, is revolutionizing dental
cryotherapy.
It is now available to dentists and

periodontists in the United States.
Dental surgeries, tooth extractions, implants and other types of
dental procedures often are followed
by unpleasant side effects. Almost
immediately after an invasive dental
procedure, patients experience swelling, discomfort and pain. These side
effects may last hours, days and even
weeks.
Dentists often prescribe painkilling, pain-relieving and antiinflammatory drugs to alleviate
post-procedural pain. Also, to reduce

swelling after the procedure, dentists recommend patients use cryotherapy. Some of the most common
oral cryotherapy methods available
to patients are an external ice pack or
holding ice chips in the mouth.
External ice packs, however, cannot get to the source of pain and
swelling inside the mouth, and holding ice in the mouth can be extremely
uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, an effective cryotherapy method that would engage
the entire oral cavity and be easily
available to patients for home use
didn’t exist — until Denta-Cool.
Denta-Cool was designed to help
periodontists and oral surgeons manage and reduce patients’ post-surgical
pain, swelling and discomfort more
efficiently.

It is a single-patient, multi-use oral
cryotherapy device. Designed to be a
therapeutic and effective method for
oral pain and swelling relief, it can be
comfortably used by patients at home.
It lowers the temperature at the
site of the dental procedure and constricts the blood vessels, reducing
swelling and inflammation. It also
numbs the nerve endings to bring
immediate relief to any pain.
Denta-Cool is a more effective
alternative to other cryotherapy tools
because it can be applied directly to
the procedure area. Denta-Cool is a
reusable device with a one-year shelf
life.
Suitable even for patients with
teeth sensitivity, Denta-Cool overcomes the limitations that external
ice packs and ice chips present.

Infinity implants: Delivering

The all-new OCTAGON BLT has
