Laser Gum Therapy

Periodontal disease can cause the loss of teeth, bone, and ultimately impact your overall health. Laser gum treatment is a faster, and gentler, way to treat issues related to periodontal disease. After a thorough periodontal evaluation Dr. Erdle can determine if you are a candidate for laser gum treatment. Our Fotona Lightwalker laser is used to help kill the bacteria which cause infection, allowing your gums to reattach to your teeth, and regenerate bone. Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure is less invasive than conventional methods and can help you achieve oral health with less swelling, sensitivity, bleeding and pain.

The technology of the Fotona Lightwalker also allow our periodontist to treat gum infections and bone loss around dental implants. By using the laser, Dr. Erdle can thoroughly clean the infected implant and possibly regenerate the bone lost without damaging the implant itself.

The Fotona Lightwalker enables our team to provide minimally invasive periodontal and implant care with less pain, swelling, recession and sensitivity, while decreasing your risk of infections.
