Lasers Can Improve Your Experience With Gum Grafting
While the gradual recession of a patient’s gum line can occur because of periodontal disease, there are other factors can cause this to occur. This problem can change the way you look when you smile, make you more likely to experience dental sensitivity, and it can make gum disease more likely if it has not already developed. Our Encinitas/San Diego, CA periodontal practice relies on a treatment known as the Pinhole Surgical Technique to restore a patient’s gum line. This process minimizes the work required to move your gum line back into proper position, and it can lead to an easier healing experience. We can further improve your comfort during this work by using lasers whenever it is necessary to remove periodontal tissues. (more…)

This may be because of erosion caused by bacteria, but it can also be due to jawbone resorption, which can occur after tooth loss. At our Encinitas/San Diego, CA periodontal practice, we can determine if a loss of mass in your jawbone is something that calls for treatment. If you could benefit from having the bone rebuilt, we can recommend a jawbone grafting procedure. This process can benefit from the use of lasers, which we can use to work on your periodontal tissues as well as harder bone tissues to prepare you for a successful grafting.. (more…)
