Gum disease can develop subtly as early symptoms are so mild. Many people don’t realize they have this infection until the symptoms become severe and, by that time, damage has been done. Fortunately, gum disease can be treated if you act quickly. Our doctors at Perio Implants Chicago offer non-surgical gum disease treatment in the form of laser surgery. Through laser gum disease treatment, Dr. Sabzehei and associates can eliminate the infection and restore your gum health. Prompt treatment can help prevent premature tooth loss.
Here are six benefits of non-surgical laser-assisted gum disease treatment:
1. Preservation of Healthy Gum Tissue
Dental lasers target infected gum tissues in your mouth, leaving healthy tissue untouched. Their precision allows our team to preserve more of your healthy gum tissues during treatment. Laser surgery is much less invasive and painful than traditional gum surgery, and produces highly effective results!
2. Flexibility
Dental lasers can be adjusted in wavelength and intensity to suit all needs. This makes them highly effective in treating different stages of moderate to advanced gum disease. We’ll direct the laser toward infected areas of your mouth to destroy bacteria and diseased tissues around your teeth and gums. We’ll also target periodontal pockets between your teeth and gums to curtail gum recession and inflammation, so your gums have a chance to heal.
3. Less Pain, Swelling & Bleeding
Laser gum disease treatment is a good choice for anxious patients as the procedure is quicker, less painful, and easier to bear than traditional gum surgery. The laser cauterizes your gums where infected tissues have been removed, so there’s less swelling and bleeding as well.
4. Quicker Recovery
Traditional gum surgery requires cutting and suturing, which takes time to heal. Laser treatments use light energy to eliminate infected tissues, so there’s less trauma to your gums. Your gums are more likely to heal quicker from your procedure. You can also look forward to a smoother, faster recovery.
5. Affordability
The cost of laser-assisted gum disease treatment isn’t out of reach! This treatment is often covered by dental insurance, and our doctors at Perio Implant Chicago offer flexible payment plans to enable our patients to benefit from this treatment. With laser treatments, there’s less need for medication to manage pain after your procedure and fewer follow-up visits, which helps reduce treatment costs.
6. Can Be Used in Conjunction with Deep Cleaning
If your condition requires some measure of traditional deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), dental lasers can be incorporated into your treatment for optimal results. In addition to treating periodontal issues, lasers can treat decay at the same time to restore your mouth to optimal health. Their effectiveness in treating soft and hard oral tissues makes them the ideal solution for oral care.
