Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. At Smile Designers, we offer laser gum therapy in San Diego, CA to treat gum disease with precision and comfort. Our personalized care helps restore your oral health and protect your smile.
Periodontal disease is a bacterial infection that affects the gums and the structures supporting your teeth. Without treatment, it can progress, leading to gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss. An experienced periodontist can diagnose the condition early and recommend the most effective treatment to protect your oral health.
Laser gum therapy is an innovative alternative to traditional gum surgery. Using advanced laser technology, your dentist can precisely remove infected tissue and harmful bacteria while preserving healthy gum tissue. This minimally invasive approach promotes healing and provides a more comfortable experience for many patients compared to conventional techniques.
Laser gum therapy offers a precise, minimally invasive way to treat periodontal disease while preserving as much healthy gum tissue as possible. As part of a personalized treatment plan, gum disease treatment may include laser therapy to eliminate infection and restore healthier gums.
After a comprehensive evaluation, our team will determine whether this treatment is the right solution for your oral health needs.
Laser gum therapy uses a specialized dental laser to target infected tissue and reduce bacteria beneath the gumline. In some cases, scaling and root planing may also be recommended to remove plaque and tartar below the gumline, creating a healthier environment for the gums to heal and reattach.
Patients who wish to enhance the appearance of their smile after improving their gum health may also benefit from cosmetic gum surgery to create a more balanced and symmetrical gumline.
According to the American Academy of Periodontology's guide to gum disease and periodontal treatment, early intervention and appropriate periodontal care are essential for protecting your gums and preserving your natural teeth.
Maintaining healthy gums after laser gum therapy is essential for long-term success. Following your personalized aftercare instructions and practicing good oral hygiene can help support healing and reduce the risk of future gum disease.
To help maintain your results, we recommend:
If gum disease has resulted in tooth loss, our team can discuss restorative options, including Dental Implants, once your gums have fully healed.
