Dental treatments and methods, including treating gum disease, using peroxide gel and a viscous antibacterial agent including tetracycline to chemically debride and curettage a treatment area. Treatments and methods include non-surgically scaling and root plaining the treatment area with dental tools such as periodontal scalers and/or curettes during the active period of the chemical debridement. The working surfaces of dental tools can be sharpened for optimal root and tooth surfacing during treatment. Treatment can include instructions for co-therapy by or on behalf of treatment subjects between visits and for maintenance care.

Disclosed are compositions, methods of treatment using the compositions and methods of preparing the compositions for the treatment of acne vulgaris. The compositions include succinic acid and an API selected from the group consisting of salicylic acid, azelaic acid, picolinic acid, benzoyl peroxide, antibiotic, retinoid and combinations thereof in a pharmaceutically acceptable preparation. The compositions that include the combination of succinic acid and another API produce improved efficacy in treating acne vulgaris.

The viscosity of aqueous dispersions of normally solid organic peroxides may be advantageously lowered through the use of surfactants which are polyglyceryl esters of C6-C12 fatty acids. The reduction in viscosity facilitates milling the peroxides to reduce particle size and also provides dispersions of small particle size peroxides which may be readily poured or pumped.

A method for caring for or treating the breasts during premenstrual or menstrual phases and for the care or treatment of the symptomatology of mastodynia, comprising a step of selecting or identifying women needing care or treatment of the breasts, or suffering from symptomatology of mastodynia, and a step of applying to the skin areas in need thereof an effective amount of a product, active agent or composition, comprising peroxidized lipids or a peroxidised oil, or consisting essentially of peroxidized lipids or of a peroxidised oil.

An antiseptic composition for use as bone cement, in particular an antiseptic polymethylmethacrylate bone cement. The composition can be cured and comprises a pharmacologically tolerable salt of a monoperoxy dicarboxylic acid, whereby the salt of the monoperoxy dicarboxylic acid can be dissolved from the composition in the presence of water. Preferably, the salt of the monoperoxy dicarboxylic acid in the composition is used in the form of a powder, whereby the powder has a mean particle size of not more than 250 μm. Preferably, the salt of the monoperoxy dicarboxylic acid, in solution at room temperature, is not degraded within 5 min by the catalase enzyme.
