While it’s important to make can come once the holidays are over and time to spend with friends and family, the bills arrive. Be sure to keep in mind it’s easy to over-commit, making us feel the coming months when considering a like we have more obligations than we do holiday budget. 3 Be optimistic about the future. As the New Year approaches, it’s not unusual for people to make resolutions, only to give up down the road. But if we really focus on what can bring us happiness in the future, and set our mind to sticking with it, we may find ourselves in a much better place this time next year.

4Volunteer to help. Volunteering our time is a wonderful way to give back to others and help ourselves feel better in the process. Other great ways to volunteer include setting up a food or gift drive, and helping neighbors set up holiday decorations.

5Look into free holiday activities.

Money can be tight around the holidays, but thankfully there are many festive things to do that are free or low-cost. Visiting other neighborhoods to enjoy other’s decorations, window shopping and getting out to take in the winter weather are all examples of free holiday experiences.

6Limit alcohol intake. Overindulging in alcohol is common around the holidays. While it may seem like it’s reducing our stress, it’s important to remember that alcohol is not only a depressant, but also a naked carbohydrate in an extremely refined form.

9Get in contact with loved ones.

For many of us, the holidays can mean isolation and loneliness. If we’re separated Formerly Krizman Dental by distance, getting in touch with loved ones is only a phone call, email, text or even a letter away. The holidays are also a wonderful time to patch up fractured relationships. Unresolved issues with loved ones can often be the root of stressors simmering in the background. • • • • Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal (SMART) Certified Dentist Mercury Toxicity Testing and Detox Programs Ozone Therapy Biocompatible Tooth Colored Fillings • • • • • Non-Metal Implants Extractions/Cavitation Surgery/Protein Rich Fibrinogen General & Cosmetic Dentistry Prolozone Pain Therapy On-Site Low Radiation CT • • • • All Porcelain Crowns and Bridges Treatments to Avoid Root Canals Infant/Child Tongue Tie Release Fluoride FREE Board Certified Integrative Biological Dentist • Board Certified Doctor of Integrative Medicine Advanced General Dentistry Degree • Masters Certification in Implants International Academy of Oral Medicine & Toxicology Accredited Dentist Masters Degree in Environmental and Occupational HealthIntegrative Biological Dentistry Jeanne Anne Krizman, D.M.D., M.P.H.

80% of Americans have Gum Disease. We assume 100% of them would prefer a non-surgical treatment option.

Our methodology breeds results. Not bacteria.

Dr. Wissinger has found a minimally invasive, comprehensive gum disease treatment that is backed by technology with research-proven results.

Where Other Methods Fall Short

Brushing, rinsing and flossing are important. But these efforts fail to reach deep below the gum line where bacteria thrive—in the periodontal pockets. Traditionally, deep cleanings, known as root planing and scaling, or surgery have been required to reach deep into the pockets to treat advanced gum disease. Antibiotics are sometimes prescribed to fight bacteria. Immediate results can be promising, but they are often only temporary. And over-prescription of antibiotics can compromise their long-term efficacy.

Bacteria thrive deep below the gum line in the periodontal pocket. Brushing, rinsing and flossing cannot reach the bacteria. The Perio Tray® delivers medicated gel deep into perio pockets and holds it there.

The E Dental Solution’s Method

Dr. Wissinger would prescribe a custom made set of trays along with a medicated gel and the patient would apply from the comfort of home. Your dental team will show you how to place a small amount of prescription gel in each tray. You wear it for just minutes each day. Dr. Wissinger will also design a treatment plan specifically for you, as the duration and frequency varies for each patient. The trays are designed with a patented seal to place and hold the gel where it is most effective—at the site of infection deep below the gum line. It will gently and thoroughly clean the periodontal pockets, combat bacteria, whiten your teeth and freshens your breath. For some patients, the non-invasive treatment reduces the need for surgical intervention. For others, it can be a potent compliment to traditional treatment methods, helping to ensure a more successful outcome. While there is no “cure” for gum disease, it can be managed with daily treatment to prevent pathogenic bacteria from recolonizing. When the desired results have been achieved, Dr. Wissinger will revise your treatment plan to maintain the results. This method is an appealing, minimally invasive option for advanced periodontitis and early-stage gum disease alike. Dr. Elahe Wissinger
