How do we treat periodontal disease with the Fotona laser systems? With this soft tissue laser, our team can gently trim away diseased portions of the gums. At the same time, we can destroy pockets of harmful disease-causing bacteria and take time to ensure your gums exhibit proper symmetry and beauty. Treatment takes one visit and the results are immediately visible. The use of this technology means a lowered risk of bleeding, infection, and swelling, and that the treated area heals fast. You can return to your normal routine in as little as one to two days! We then manage the disease with possible actions like cleaning every three to four months and instructions for better homecare habits.
Did you know that lasers can often offer the same results as dermal fillers, without infections? With this technology, we can adjust the size of tissues and muscles to help ease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The process takes only a few minutes and the results are immediately visible, and can last for a long period of time too. You can enjoy a younger looking appearance without the need for injectables like Botox and dermal fillers.
What about sleep apnea? If you have issues resting at night, then we can offer help with sleep apnea treatment. With this disorder, as you rest soft tissues collapse and cut off airflow. You stop breathing multiple times a night, interrupting your REM sleep. You may not recall this happening, but it can cause chronic snoring, daytime drowsiness, irritability, and issues with memory and concentration. After enough time, this could address your heart health too! But with advanced technology, we can gently shrink these tissues to prevent the obstruction of airflow at night, so you rest without interruption and feel more refreshed during the day.
If you have any questions about how we can use Fotona perio lasers to take on gum disease, decrease common signs of aging, and also take on sleep apnea, then contact our team today to learn more and get started.
Fotona can offer care with precision and comfort, and even help you rest easier. To learn more about advanced systems, then call Dr. Ann Kania in Encinitas, CA, today at 760-642-0711.
