How do you know when to see our team for periodontic treatment? Warning signs of the disease could include soreness in the gums, a redness in the tissues, or even bleeding when you brush and floss. As the issue reaches a more severe stage, there could be recession that makes teeth appear longer, and increase the risk of periodontitis, the stage linked to adult tooth loss. To help your smile recover and stay whole, see our team right away for a diagnosis. We can examine the gums with advanced digital technology to assess the risk and severity, and to plan treatment with precision and accuracy.
If we find you have periodontal disease, then we could offer help with laser dentistry. We can choose from multiple systems, such as LANAP, Fotona, and REPAIR with WaterLase. The technology allows our team to gently trim away the diseased portions of the gums and reshape the gum line for better health and esthetics. At the same time, the technology destroys harmful disease-causing bacteria. This system takes only one visit to complete and rarely requires any anesthesia. This can take on minor and severe cases, and help restore the health, function, and beauty of your smile in only one appointment.
With periodontic lasers, we don’t need to use scalpels and sutures, which means the treated area will heal after. The technology also destroys harmful bacteria and essentially cauterizes the treated area, so the area heals quickly and the risk of bleeding, infection, and swelling is much lower. The area heals fast and you could prematurely return to your normal routine after only a day or two of rest. Our team will then discuss routine care to better control the disease and better manage it, so you can avoid discomfort and the risk of losing your natural teeth.
If you have any questions about how we treat gum disease with laser dentistry, and how we can help ensure the area heals faster, then reach out to our team today learn elan more and start your treatment journey.
