Laser Applications

LASER APPLICATIONS IN THE PERIODONTAL PRACTICE

OUR STATE OF THE ART LASER TECHNOLOGY INCLUDES BOTH Nd:YAG AND ERBIUM LASERS

Laser Assisted Periodontal Procedure                                               

Utilizes wavelengths (Nd:YAG) of light that target bacteria and stimulate new attachment (including bone)

 

Frenectomies and Gingivectomies

The advantage of lasers is that these procedures can often be performed without sutures.  Lasers provide good hemostatis as well as stimulate healing

 

Implant Repair

The Erbium laser helps to decontaminate the implant surface without damaging the implant.  It is often used in conjunction with bone grafting
