Our team provides soft tissue laser technology, with multiple systems such as LANAP, REPAIR with WaterLase, and Fotona. These can help our team address a wide array of complex oral health concerns, including periodontal disease and weakened jawbone structure, and even sleep apnea! In today’s blog, Dr. Ann Kania talks about the array of concerns we can help with comfortable laser technology.
Our Soft Tissue Dental Lasers
These laser systems have been specially calibrated to handle soft tissue concerns, and can make adjustments to your smile with precision and comfort. The technology destroys harmful bacteria in the process, and can also limit the risk of bleeding, infection, and swelling. You could see results in only one day, and since we don’t need scalpels or sutures, the area will heal fast and you can potentially return to your normal routine after a day or two of rest.
Gum Disease
If you have gum disease, then our team could offer treatment that removes the diseased tissues, and in the process, reshapes the gum line to ensure proper symmetry. Our team can also destroy disease-causing bacteria in the process.
Gum and Jawbone Grafting
If you need gum grafting to correct receding issues and improve your smile’s health and appearance, then we can use lasers to help make any necessary adjustments to your gum tissues. Likewise, if you require bone grafting to prepare your smile for dental implant placement, we can use the technology to make necessary changes to attachment tissues and the underlying bone structure, as well as the gums themselves.
Sleep Apnea
If you have issues sleeping and feeling rested due to chronic snoring and sleep apnea, we can help with the Fotona system. The technology can shrink and change the shape of the soft tissues that collapsed and block airflow. Which means we can help you rest without the cessation of breathing, which could otherwise interrupt your sleep cycle multiple times a night. This is a nonsurgical way to help you rest, and a way to avoid the need or a CPAP machine!
Signs of Aging
Did you know the same advanced technology can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in the face, so you have a more youthful appearance?
