System can help keep patients nearly plaque free.

HONOLULU, Hawaii--P&G Oral Health has unveiled how patients can be nearly plaque free with regular use of the Crest Pro-Health System, a three-step oral hygiene regimen.

This PRO-HEALTH SYSTEM gives oral care professionals nationwide a regimen that will provide all-day and all-night plaque protection for patients. The PRO-HEALTH SYSTEM consists of the following products:

* Oral-B Professional Care SmartSeries 5000 with SmartGuide
* Crest PRO-HEALTH Toothpaste
* Crest PRO-HEALTH Rinse

"Plaque and the oral health issues surrounding it are a constant battle for oral care professionals," said Dr Robert Gerlach, DDS, MPH, Research Fellow, P&G Worldwide Clinical Investigations.

"P&G Oral Health understands these issues and has developed a regimen with proven results that contains brands oral care professionals know and trust."

The coupling of mechanical and chemical action enables PRO-HEALTH SYSTEM to work. The mechanical action is Oral B's oscillating-rotating technology, which loosens and sweeps away plaque to provide plaque removal benefits .

Stabilized stannous fluoride in Crest PRO-HEALTH Toothpaste inhibits the metabolic activity of destructive bacteria and cetylpyridinium chloride in Crest PRO-HEALTH Rinse inhibits the regrowth of plaque biofilm to provide the chemical action.

Twice daily use of Crest PRO-HEALTH Toothpaste and Rinse helps prevent regrowth.
