Perio & Family Doctors - a joint EFP/Wonca/Curasept project

The Perio & Family Doctors campaign is a joint project of the EFP and Wonca Europe, with the support and unrestricted grant from Curasept.

The EFP (European Federation of Periodontology) is the scientific benchmark in periodontology and implant dentitry and leads the global conversation on gum health and gum disease. It's also the driving force behind EuroPerio – the most important international periodontal congress. It also organises Perio Workshop, a world-leading meeting on periodontal science, and Perio Master Clinic and International Perio Master Clinic, prestigious conferences for dental clinicians, as well as editing the Journal of Clinical Periodontology (JCP), one of the most authoritative scientific publications in this field.

Founded in 1991, the EFP brings together 38 national societies of periodontology from around the world, which together represent more than 16,000 periodontists, dentists, researchers, and other members of the dental team focused on improving periodontal science and practice. The EFP and its national societies organise the annual Gum Health Day (May 12) to increase public awareness of periodontal health.

Wonca Europe represents 47 member organisations and more than 90,000 family doctors, and is the academic and scientific society of Wonca for general practice/family medicine in Europe.

Wonca Europe is one of the weven regional branches of Wonca (World Organisation of National Colleges, Academies and Academic Associations of General Practitioners/Family Physicians), which consists of 122 member organisations in 102 countries, with a total of 500,000 family doctors around the world. Founded in 1972, it represents and acts as an advocate for its constituent members at an international level, where it interacts with world bodies such as the WHO.

Curasept S.p.A. was founded in 2001 with the aim of creating innovative and safe solutions that give a continuous boost to improve chemical and mechanical oral hygiene performance. The approach is highly scientific and makes research the real backbone of the brand. Each product line is characterised by reliability and efficiency, and recognised as gold standard.

Innovative drive along with deep knowledge of the needs related to oral health in all age groups have always been the distinctive values of the brand which, consistently with the specificity of its products, has chosen to distribute almost exclusively in pharmacies
