Products

We make available at our office those health care products designed for specific applications so that you don’t have to travel from pharmacy to pharmacy to find them. Here’s a sampling of the products we recommend for those wanting to be the healthiest possible.

Omnii Control Rx
A 5000 ppm daily home fluoride treatment for the treatment and prevention of cavities, tooth sensitivity, and more. Available by prescription only.

Omnii Floss Rx
A prescription-only floss containing stannous fluoride designed to release fluoride beneath the gumline every time you floss.

Omnii Soothe Rx
You’ve seen it in ads and heard it in the news! This is an FDA-approved, prescription only treatment for tooth sensitivity that contains NovaMin, which provides the minerals needed to treat the surface of the tooth where the sensitivity happens. Very effective!

Omnii Tongue Scraper
Did you know that many bad breath problems occur because of dirty tongues? Start cleaning your tongue today with a device that removes the odor-causing bacteria, rather than just moving it around.

Omnii PerioMed
A stannous fluoride rinse that will not only help prevent cavities, but kills bacteria that can cause gum disease. Prescription only.

Peridex
A chlorhexidine rinse that kills bacteria on contact. Effectively kills large numbers of gum disease causing bacteria, aiding in the prevention and treatment of gum disease. Much more effective than mouthwashes. Prescription only.

DayWhite, NiteWhite, and Crest Professional Whitestrips tooth bleaching products
Professional refills for those already with bleaching trays, or those who prefer using the Whitestrips but need a stronger concentration of bleaching agents.
