Curodont™ in Austin, TX

At Althea Eggleston, DDS, PA, we stay on the leading edge of noninvasive options for gum disease care. Curodont™ is an advanced peptide-based treatment that supports natural tissue regeneration, helping patients with gingivitis and periodontitis heal without traditional surgery.

What Is Curodont?

Curodont is a bioactive peptide technology that promotes regeneration of damaged periodontal tissues. When applied to areas affected by gum disease, its proprietary self-assembling peptide (P11-4) creates a scaffold within the damaged tissue that encourages natural healing. This process supports the regeneration of gum attachment and bone structure compromised by gingivitis and periodontitis, offering a minimally invasive path toward healthier gums.

When Is Curodont Recommended?

• Gingivitis: Early gum inflammation with bleeding, redness, or swelling that has not yet caused bone loss.
• Mild to moderate periodontitis: Gum disease with early pocket formation and attachment loss.
• Post-scaling and root planing support: To enhance healing after deep cleaning procedures.
• Patients seeking nonsurgical options: Those who prefer a less invasive alternative to traditional periodontal surgery.

How Does Curodont Work?

• Comprehensive evaluation. Gum health is assessed through probing, imaging, and clinical examination to identify areas of tissue damage.
• Thorough cleaning. Scaling and root planing remove bacteria, plaque, and tartar from below the gumline.
• Peptide application. The Curodont solution is applied directly to affected periodontal pockets. Its self-assembling peptide creates a regenerative scaffold within the damaged tissue.
• Natural tissue regeneration.Over weeks, the scaffold supports the body’s own healing response, encouraging new gum attachment and bone support.
• Follow-up. Progress is monitored at regular visits to evaluate pocket depth reduction and tissue healing.
