Johnson & Johnson Ltd, the makers of LISTERINE Advanced Defence, were proud to sponsor two presentations at the 2014 British Dental Conference & Exhibition.

Dr Maria Mantzourani offered advice on how to translate complex microbiological concepts into clinical practice and provide factual oral health education and treatment to patients. Professor Anthony Roberts examined common management challenges for patients with periodontitis, offering suggestions on overcoming these issues in practice.

On show was LISTERINE Advanced Defence Gum Treatment, an alternative to chlorhexidine-based remedies. This twice-daily mouthwash is clinically proven to treat gum disease as an adjunct to mechanical cleaning. When used after brushing, it treats gum disease as shown by the reduction of bleeding by 50.9% (p <0.001) in only four weeks. In addition, Advanced Defence Gum Treatment is designed to not cause staining.

LISTERINE Advanced Defence Gum Treatment is part of the Advanced Defence range, a scientifically proven adjunct to professional treatment.

The LISTERINE Advanced Defence range also includes Advanced Defence Sensitive and Advanced Defence Cavity Guard.
