Arestin
Arestin® Gum Treatment
Gum Disease Care in Asheville, NC
Periodontal disease is a serious infection under your gum line.
ARESTIN® (minocycline hydrochloride) is an antibiotic that kills the bacteria that causes the infection.
- It’s placed directly in the infected areas—or “pockets”—in your gums.
- It’s applied right after scaling and root planing, the dental procedure that disrupts stubborn plaque and bacteria below your gum line—where brushing and flossing can’t reach.
ARESTIN® starts working quickly, right at the source of infection, and keeps fighting bacteria long after you leave the dental office. 1,2
ARESTIN® fights infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and provides significantly better results than scaling and root planing alone for up to 90 days.3
The Proof is our Patients
5-star reviews in Asheville, NC
I absolutely love coming to Asheville Dental Associates because they have wonderful customer service and they let me know exactly what I need to do to have the healthiest smile that I can.I drive 2 hours because their service is exemplary and thorough. On this last visit, I had Jill and she was absolutely amazing. She always made sure to ask about my comfort level and even though I hadn't been following my regiment like I should have been, she managed to get me straight without a lot of pain involved. I hope she's there next time because I'm going to request her again. I love all the people at Asheville Dental Associates but Jill is definitely my new favorite!
I am blessed to be a part of the amazing team at Asheville Dental Associates for 20 years now 💜 I love the family atmosphere at our office!

We recently moved to Asheville and I had part of a tooth break off at dinner. Called Asheville Dental Associates the next morning and was given an appointment for the next day! Dr. Abbott checked out what was going on and referred me to a local Endodontist who could see me the following morning! Dr. Abbott was very thorough in explaining everything and I feel confident that this whole process will be pleasant. The staff is very welcoming and helpful as well!
I had a great new patient exam & cleaning here this past Friday! I wish I could remember names but my dental hygienist was excellent & thorough when checking my gum health. I have some anxiety about teeth filling/drilling noises & sensation from a previous dentist that handled my 2 veneers a few years ago, but my hygienist asked me if I was okay with the sonic scaler before using - there was really good communication throughout the appointment. The dentist reassured me that my old cavity filling still looks good at this time. I usually love getting my teeth cleaned/having that glass teeth feeling afterwards but I had put a dentist visit off for a while due to the anxiety from previous experience however everything went very smooth at this office so I'm thankful.
