Scalpel-Free Laser Gum Disease Treatment

Scalpel-Free Laser Gum Disease Treatment

Our laser equipment enables us to instantly eradicate signs of bacteria and infection from your mouth without damaging surrounding healthy tissue! We commonly use this minimally invasive technology for gingivectomies—removing diseased gum tissue that can’t be treated. We also use it for soft tissue recontouring/crown lengthening. If you feel you have a “gummy smile,” this procedure will create a more balanced look with less gum tissue and more tooth visible. We can complete these treatments with no scalpels or sutures!

Scaling and Root Planing

Scaling and Root Planing

When dental plaque buildup under your gumline goes untreated your gums and teeth can separate, leaving deep pockets between them. Scaling is when we clear away the accumulated plaque. We follow this with root planing, during which we smooth down the root enamel to keep bacteria from growing in small crevices. After this treatment, your gums and teeth will be able to reconnect and seal your smile from infection.

Periodontal Maintenance

Periodontal Maintenance

Periodontal disease is incurable at present, but we can control it. Once you undergo gum disease treatment, we’ll have you come back to our office for ongoing periodontal maintenance three or four times per year. These appointments will give us the opportunity to do deep cleaning in the form of additional scaling and root planing, which will eradicate any bacteria that may have built up since your prior treatment.

Peri-Implantitis Treatment

Peri-Implantitis Treatment

Dental implants are made to last many years and have a success rate of 98%. If the tissue around an implant becomes infected, however, implants can become unstable and eventually fall out. After this, the underlying jawbone may recede. Through a combination of deep cleaning, removal of infected tissue, and bone grafting our team can protect your smile investment from the effects of peri-implantitis.

Frenectomy

Read More

Frenectomy

Your mouth has two pieces of tissue that perform highly specific functions. One connects your upper lip to your upper gums. The other anchors your tongue to the floor of your mouth. If either of these tissues is too short, it can restrict your ability to eat and speak normally. You may also not be able to receive orthodontic appliances. By performing a frenectomy—removal of the

restrictive tissue—we can enable you to enjoy meals and conversations without constraints.

Good Gum Health Is Good Oral Health
