Did you know that periodontitis plays a key role in the development of erectile dysfunction? Or that patients with erectile dysfunction typically have worse periodontal condition?[i]Luckily, there is evidence that suggests non-surgical periodontal treatment can improve the severity of erectile dysfunction.[ii]

To help prevent and treat periodontitis in your male patients, be sure to provide them with proven oral health adjuncts with a reputation for ensuring a safe, gentle and effective clean.

Specially designed for secondary prevention and to tackle areas of stubborn plaque, the CPS perio line of interdental brushes from Curaprox certainly ticks all the boxes. Made using CURAL^® ultra-thin and extra strong surgical wire, CPS perio brushes can fit into the smallest of interdental spaces offering ultimate coverage. The added bonus is that they last up to five times longer than other interdental brushes on the market.

Used alongside one of Curaprox’s extremely soft yet incredibly effective toothbrushes, patients could help to keep periodontitis – and associated problems such as erectile dysfunction – at bay.
