Sumycin Indications, Dosage, Storage, Stability - Tetracycline (periodontal)
Sumycin Indications, Dosage, Storage, Stability - Tetracycline (periodontal)
INDICATIONS
Actisite® periodontal
fiber is indicated as
an adjunct to scaling
and root planing
for reduction of pocket
depth and bleeding
on probing in patients with adult
periodontitis.
Treatment with Actisite is a component
of an intervention
program which includes
good oral hygiene
and scaling and root
planing.
Effectiveness of repeated fiber
applications in a site
has not been studied.
The effects of Actisite on bone
loss, tooth mobility,
or tooth loss from periodontal
disease has not been
established.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Actisite periodontal
fiber for 10 days is indicated
as an adjunct to scaling
and root planing. Repeated
fiber applications have
not been studied. Actisite fiber
should be inserted into the periodontal
pocket until the pocket
is filled. The length
of fiber used will
vary with pocket depth
and contour. The fiber
should be placed to closely approximate
the pocket anatomy and should be in contact
with the base of the pocket.
An appropriate cyanoacrylate
adhesive should be
used to help secure the fiber
in the pocket.
When placed within a periodontal
pocket, Actisite fiber
provides continuous release of tetracycline
for 10 days. At the end
of 10 days of treatment, all fibers must be removed. Fibers lost
before 7 days should be replaced.
HOW SUPPLIED
Actisite periodontal
fiber is available in
cartons containing 4 fibers and 10 fibers. Each individually packaged,
yellow fiber

and contains 12.7 mg of Actisite.
