Laser Periodontal Therapy
Treatment Procedure
A. Perio probe indicates excessive pocket depth.
B. Laser light removes bacteria and diseased tissue.
C. Ultrasonic scaler and special hand instruments.
D. Laser finishes cleaning pocket and aids in sealing the pocket closed so new germs cannot enter.
E. Healing of gums to clean root surface occurs.
F. Bite trauma is adjusted.
G. Healing occurs.
Laser Periodontal Therapy is a laser-based approach to gum disease using an Nd:YAG free running pulsed laser requiring specific knowledge and skills drawn from various aspects of dentistry.
To you, the patient, this means: Less pain, less bleeding, less swelling, less tissue removed, less down time, and less recovery time which is decidedly less costly to you!
Reasons why we use Laser Periodontal Therapy: are to remove only the diseased tissue without removing any of the healthy tissue, maintain the height of the tissue around teeth, minimize pain and discomfort to the patient, get a closure of the periodontal pocket wound and allow healing to take place. Controlling periodontal disease makes it possible to save and restore otherwise hopeless teeth.
