Understanding Periodontal Laser Therapy

What is Periodontal Laser Therapy?

Periodontal Laser Therapy involves the use of laser light to specifically target and remove diseased tissue from the gums without affecting healthy tissue. This minimally invasive technique also helps to stimulate the regrowth of tissues and bone around the teeth.

How Does Laser Therapy Improve Gum Health?

Laser therapy reduces bacteria and infection, promoting faster healing and reducing inflammation. It's an effective treatment for periodontal disease, offering a quicker recovery time and less discomfort compared to traditional methods.
