In its more extreme cases, gum disease can worsen from gingivitis into periodontitis. This can cause tooth and bone loss, as well as increase the risk of damaging your immune system as the disease spreads.
Thanks to modern dental technology, we can use a thin, precision laser to remove harmful bacteria from your teeth and gums as non-invasively as possible. Laser therapy works to stem bleeding in the gums and reduce inflammation, typically without the use of anesthesia!
Depending on how extensive your infection is, the laser’s levels can be adjusted to match the work that needs to be done. Because the laser won’t damage your teeth or gums while removing the decay, your recovery time can even be reduced following the procedure.
We are committed to giving you exceptional periodontal care, not to mention a healthy smile! At Black Bear Dental, we use the latest technologies and the most effective techniques to perform dental treatments that will restore your dental health.
