Treating gum disease with laser treatment in Aliso Viejo, CA area practice

Have you been told by your dentist that you have gum disease? Are you worried about what treatment might entail? Many patients in the area of Aliso Viejo, California are uneasy about extensive dental treatments that might be painful. Fortunately, treatment of gum disease is now less invasive than ever before with the use of laser treatment. Treating gum disease with lasers has many benefits, making it the most desirable treatment method for our patients.

What is gum disease?

First, it is vital that patients understand what gum disease is. Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is an infection that impacts the soft tissues of the mouth and then spreads. It not only causes bacteria to enter the bloodstream and affect the rest of the body, it also can cause the loss of gum tissue, jawbone, and natural teeth. If not diagnosed and treated in the earlier stages, it can cause extensive damage.

How is gum disease treated?

The most effective treatment is periodontal treatments using laser therapies. A laser light is used to treat the infection by eliminating the bacteria that contributes to the development of this condition. Laser treatment does not require sutures, scaling, or root planing as traditional treatments do.

What are the benefits of lasers for treating gum disease?

Laser treatment is:

• Faster
• Less invasive
• Affordable
• Effective
