Comfort & Oral Health Support
Non-Surgical Oral Tissue & Dry Mouth Care
At our office, we focus on patient comfort and oral tissue health — especially for patients experiencing dry mouth, oral irritation, ulcers, or sensitivity. As part of our non-surgical dental care approach, we use gentle adjunctive therapies such as StellaLife® to support oral comfort and tissue wellness when appropriate.
This supportive care is used during select hygiene and periodontal visits and is always based on individual patient needs.
When Comfort & Oral Health Support May Help
How We Use StellaLife® in Our Office
We use StellaLife® as a supportive, adjunctive oral care option in non-surgical situations, including:
- SRP (deep cleaning) irrigation support
- Dry mouth comfort care
- Oral ulcer and sore tissue support
- Cold sore comfort support
- Everyday oral tissue wellness
- Comfort support for cancer patients with oral sensitivity
It is used as an adjunctive support therapy — not as a replacement for primary dental treatment.
SRP (Scaling and Root Planing) Comfort Support
During non-surgical periodontal therapy such as scaling and root planing, irrigation is often used to cleanse and support the gum tissues. In select cases, we may use StellaLife® as a gentle irrigant to promote tissue comfort during treatment.
This is part of a patient-comfort-focused periodontal care approach.
Dry Mouth Support Options
Dry mouth can increase cavity risk and cause significant discomfort. Supportive oral care options may include:
- Tissue-support rinses
- Moisture support products
- Comfort-focused adjunctive therapies
- Personalized home care recommendations
We tailor dry mouth support based on each patient’s needs and medical history.
Oral Ulcer & Cold Sore Comfort Care
For patients with mouth sores, ulcers, or irritated tissues, supportive oral care therapies may be recommended to:
- Improve comfort
- Support tissue recovery
- Reduce irritation
- Help maintain oral hygiene during flare-ups
Recommendations are always individualized.
Cancer Patient Oral Comfort Support
Patients undergoing cancer treatment often experience oral dryness and tissue sensitivity. When appropriate, we may recommend gentle oral support therapies as part of a comfort-focused care plan coordinated with the patient’s medical guidance.
