So it’s important to maintain our overall gum health because gum disease can lead to disease in the bone that surrounds the teeth and when that happens it can lead to infections and sores around the gums which in turn would lead to tooth loss and we don’t want our patients losing any teeth. At our office, we do a very good job on educating patients of what status their oral health is in and we also offer different options to help get them back on track if they have fallen off the horse a little bit.
Restore Periodontal Health with Dental Laser Care
During each comprehensive dental exam, our dentists carefully screen for any signs of gum disease. If we find anything, we can take prompt action with a deep cleaning procedure called scaling and root planing. At North Oaks Dental, our dentists can utilize PerioLase laser technology to make your treatment quicker, more precise, and significantly more comfortable.
If the removal of inflamed gum tissue is necessary, our laser treatment provides several key advantages:
- Targeting diseased tissue while preserving healthy gum tissue
- Expediting your procedure with minimal discomfort
- Sealing your healthy tissue without the need for sutures
- Minimizing your risk of infection and promoting faster healing
- Reducing the overall cost of your service
Because laser therapy is so gentle and efficient, local anesthesia may be the only numbing measure needed. However, if you feel nervous or have sensitive gums and teeth, we offer multiple sedation options.
