Laser gum treatment offers a painless, comfortable solution to halt gum disease progression.
What is Laser Gum Treatment?
Gum disease, also known as Periodontitis, is a frequently unnoticed dental issue. Laser gum treatment offers a painless, comfortable solution to halt gum disease progression. This non-surgical procedure employs laser light to target and eliminate harmful bacteria around gum tissue and tooth root surfaces. By eliminating the bacteria, the treatment encourages new healthy attachment of gum tissue to the bone. Indications requiring a Laser Gum Treatment include the prevalence of gum disease, bleeding gums and gum pockets, and periodontal diseases.
How Does it Work?
Laser gum treatment is a non-surgical approach that employs laser light to eliminate harmful bacteria around the gums and tooth roots. By eradicating these bacteria, the treatment fosters the attachment of healthy gum tissue to the bone, preventing the progression of gum disease.
- Consultation and Assessment: A comprehensive review of X-rays, medical history, and dental records is conducted to determine the suitability of the procedure.
- Laser Application: A specialized laser with a disposable tip is inserted into the gum tissue. The laser accurately differentiates between healthy and diseased tissue.
- Bacterial Elimination: The laser targets and vaporizes harmful bacteria, promoting the healing process without bleeding.
- Tissue Healing: By cauterizing the infected tissue, the procedure encourages tissue healing and the attachment of healthy gum tissue to the bone.
- Non-invasive: The procedure is non-surgical and minimizes discomfort.
- Targeted Treatment: Laser precision targets bacteria without affecting healthy tissue.
- Painless: The treatment is virtually pain-free, offering a comfortable experience.
- No Bleeding: Laser technology cauterizes tissue, reducing or eliminating bleeding.
- Faster Recovery: The minimally invasive approach often leads to quicker healing.
