WHY UNDERGO GUM DISEASE TREATMENT?

Gum disease is a progressive condition which means it will not get better without treatment. If you have any signs of gum disease, you should come in for an oral evaluation immediately. Bleeding gums, gum recession, and chronic bad breath are all red flags of an infection in the mouth.


Gum disease is linked to systemic health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer. Early detection can help prevent further damage and may even save your health.

BENEFITS OF LASER GUM SURGERY

Laser gum surgery is one of the latest advances in dentistry and a valuable tool for us to eradicate bacteria and treat infected tissue. The laser device emits a targeted laser beam to the treatment area leaving healthy gum tissue untouched. This means there is less trauma to surrounding tissues. Other benefits of laser gum surgery include:

  • Fast healing time
  • Minimally-invasive procedure
  • Minimal or no downtime
  • Little-to-no pain
  • Predictable outcomes
  • No cutting or stitches required
