Attack Bacteria with Light

What is Periodontal Surgery?

Periodontal Surgery is a revolutionary dental treatment that effectively targets and eliminates harmful bacteria responsible for inflammation and periodontal pockets. While traditional methods such as manual plaque and tartar removal remain essential, laser gum therapy provides additional support by decontaminating gum pockets and destroying bacterial colonies that are too small to remove manually. By using light energy to attack bacteria at a microscopic level, lasers can significantly reduce the number of harmful microorganisms that threaten our oral and overall health. Furthermore, the laser's ability to inhibit the recolonization of bacteria promotes gum healing and prevents further inflammation. Pairing this cutting-edge technology with a manual plaque and tartar removal ensures optimal oral health and a radiant smile.

Boost Your Immune System

What are the benefits of Periodontal Surgery?

At our practice in Aliso Viejo Periodontal Surgery is offered as an essential treatment during routine cleanings. Our highly skilled hygienists recommend this treatment because it not only reduces the risk of cross-contamination within the mouth but also boosts the immune system and overall health. By using a light laser, this treatment eliminates bacteria in the mouth that causes inflammation and periodontal disease. Furthermore, it stimulates the periodontal tissues, making them more resistant to infection.

One of the biggest advantages of Laser Bacterial Reduction or Periodontal Surgery is that it minimizes bleeding during routine cleanings, reducing the risk of bacteria entering the bloodstream. This procedure is painless and only takes three to five minutes to complete, making it a quick and effective way to improve your oral health. With this cutting-edge technology, we can ensure that our patients receive the best possible care and enjoy a healthy, radiant smile. Don't hesitate to ask your hygienist about this essential treatment during your next cleaning at Aliso Viejo Family Dental Group.

A Thorough Cleaning

Your Periodontal Surgery Procedure

The first step involves using a laser to remove damaged tissue from the infected gum pockets. Once this damaged tissue is removed, it exposes the roots of the affected tooth, allowing for more thorough cleaning of all affected roots.

After the roots have been thoroughly cleaned, the laser is used once again to seal the area and enhance the healing of tissues and bones. By using laser energy, this procedure helps to create a healthy environment for healing and can drastically reduce the number of harmful bacteria that compromise our oral and overall health. Overall, laser Periodontal Surgery is a highly effective and safe way to address gum disease and restore a healthy, radiant smile.

Eradicate Harmful Bacteria

Periodontal Surgery Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery from laser gum surgery is much quicker compared to traditional non-laser surgery, with most patients able to return to work within 24 hours. Although it could take up to a week for complete recovery, the healing process is significantly faster with laser treatment. This is because there is minimal bleeding and swelling and no need for dental sutures or incisions. Additionally, after Periodontal Surgery Aliso Viejo patients usually don't need bone or soft tissue grafts, which are often needed with other methods and greatly extend the healing time.

The lasers used in Periodontal Surgery effectively eradicate harmful bacteria colonies, resulting in less inflammation and fewer pathogens that can slow down recovery. The lasers also stimulate the regeneration of gum tissue, which helps it to reattach to the tooth roots properly, resulting in longer-lasting results and often preventing a quick re-occurrence of gum disease. Laser treatment is less painful than traditional surgery, as the lasers eliminate infected gum tissue without causing any significant pain. The fact that most dental insurance plans cover laser treatment means you may pay similar or lower costs than you would for other methods of major periodontal treatment.
