Three strong reasons to use Cervitec Plus:
- Targeted bacteria control: The amount of harmful bacteria is reduced; inflammation subsides.
- Long-lasting retention: High moisture tolerance ensures the varnish stays in place—even in hard-toreach areas.
- Mild taste: A pleasant taste promotes high patient acceptance.
Cervitec Plus offers a solution that excels in both performance and application—straightforward, effective, and versatile across a range of needs.
Simple application
What do I appreciate most about Cervitec Plus? It is easy and fast to apply—a major advantage in everyday practice. Here is the application procedure in three easy steps:
- Prepare: Clean and dry the teeth.
- Apply: Place a thin coat of varnish using a brush or applicator.
- Let dry: Lightly disperse the varnish, then wait for 30 seconds.
It is recommended to repeat the treatment every three months, or more frequently in high-risk patients. And the cherry on top? Patients barely notice that anything has been applied. Simply brilliant, without a doubt.
A quick tip: Take a moment during application to explain how the varnish works—this helps patients feel more informed and increases their confidence in the product.
In practice: How Cervitec Plus performs in everyday use
Here is an example from my practice that demonstrates how effective Cervitec Plus is in day-to-day use:
Case presentation: Mr. K, 73 years old with reduced saliva production due to medication, impaired fine motor skills, and sensitive cervicals, Mr. K’s oral health presented a real challenge. Despite regular tooth cleaning, new carious lesions kept appearing.
My approach: After thoroughly cleaning the teeth, I applied Cervitec Plus selectively to the exposed cervical areas. As the varnish offers high moisture tolerance, the application was smooth and effective, even under the challenging conditions at hand.
The result:
- No new carious lesions in the past 12 months
- Marked reduction in hypersensitivity
- Mr. K reported feeling more confident while eating and drinking: “I never thought that something as simple as a varnish could make such a difference. My teeth simply feel better protected.”
This example shows: Cervitec Plus is not only efficacious, but it also significantly
enhances the quality of life of patients.
What is thymol?
Thymol is an active compound derived from thyme, the familiar culinary herb. In this product, thymol exhibits both antibacterial and antifungal properties, helping to reduce relevant bacteria in the oral cavity. It also supports the healing of irritated tissues and contributes to maintaining overall oral health.
A key advantage of thymol: It specifically inhibits the acid production of bacteria such as Lactobacillus spp., which tend to colonize anaerobic, hard-to-reach areas. These bacteria play a significant role in the development and progression of root caries. By reducing their acid production, thymol protects exposed root surfaces and supports the long-term prevention of root caries.
In short: thymol is a multitasker for oral health.
The role of thymol in Cervitec Plus:
- Lactobacillus: Thymol disrupts the cell membranes and blocks enzymes, reducing acid production—a decisive factor in the prevention of caries.
- Candida albicans: Thymol has antifungal properties that inhibit the growth of Candida, which is particularly relevant in patients with xerostomia.
- Actinomyces species: Thanks to its antibacterial action, thymol helps limit the proliferation of Actinomyces species, which are involved in the development of root caries.
Cervitec Plus leverages the benefits of thymol to support the oral microbiome and strategically protect vulnerable areas.
Conclusion: This is what modern prevention looks like
Cervitec Plus is more than just a varnish; it is a reliable partner in modern preventive care. It provides effective protection for at-risk areas, is easy to use, and helps improve the quality of life of our patients. For me, it is a basic essential in every practice because it works. Period.
