In November, Dental Economics, a national oral health industry magazine, invited Martino to share a science and technology article on managing dental implants and the onset of peri-implant disease.
“With the growing popularity of implants, it is up to us to find better ways to keep peri-implantitis at bay.

Creating a daily regimen that includes a rinse with therapeutic benefit is our best defense against the number on cause of implant failure,” Martino concluded.
