When you delay treatment for tooth loss, you can encounter some unexpected difficulties. A single gap in your smile is enough to change your risk for new oral health issues, including further tooth losses and the deterioration of your jawbone. Poor health and density can complicate plans to place a dental implant, as you may not be able to receive it and support it. This does not mean that you have no way of addressing tooth loss—through a contouring treatment using laser technology, we can help you by improving the health and density of the bone where your implant should be placed.
By using laser technology to perform your jawbone grafting procedure, our practice can provide an effective treatment for restoring the bone tissues and preparing you for a successful prosthetic procedure. Lasers make your care more conservative and comfortable, as we can provide more precise work and limit bleeding. In addition to making your experience easier in the office, this technology can make your recovery easier.
There are several procedures our practice provides that can take on your periodontal health. An active infection can be addressed through a procedure that will remove bacteria and unhealthy tissues, giving you a chance to recover and improve your health. We can also use lasers in gum grafting procedures that help restore your appearance and well-being.
Through jawbone grafting treatment that relies on laser technology, our practice can help patients who need to recover from the effects of poor bone density and health before they receive a dental implant. This is one of several services that we can provide that use laser technology to make your time in the dentist’s chair easier.
