When you have issues like periodontal disease, or if we need to prepare your smile for grafting or dental implant placement, then we can use advanced technology. With dental lasers, our team can provide treatment with precision and comfort. In today’s blog, your Encinitas/San Diego, CA, periodontist talks about correcting hard and soft tissue concerns and improving your smile using advanced laser dentistry!
When You Need Laser Dentistry
When should you see our team for dental laser treatment? We often provide this technology to help address the more advanced stages of periodontal disease, the stages that are beyond treatment with a deep cleaning or simple lifestyle changes. If you have lost teeth due to periodontitis and your jaw has weakened, we could use the technology as part of a jawbone grafting procedure to strengthen the smile so it can support one or more dental implants. If you have serious gum recession, then this technology is a key component of the conservative Pinhole Surgical Technique, which we use in lieu of traditional gum grafting.
The Fotona TwinLight Systems
Whether we need to treat soft tissue or hard tissue concerns, we can use the advanced Fontona TwinLight systems. These systems enable our team to make adjustments to the tissues, and in the process destroy harmful oral bacteria. We can trim away disease tissues and reshape the gum line, and aid in the grafting of the gums or the jawbone. For some, this can also help address skin texture to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The technology helps enhance your natural collagen production to improve facial features and offer a more youthful appearance. The lasers are minimally invasive and rarely require the use of anesthesia either. Since they destroy harmful bacteria in the process, the risk of infection, bleeding, and swelling is decreased, and the area heals faster. Many people will be able to return to their normal routine after a day or two of rest.
If you have any questions about how we can employ the Fotona Twinlight system to offer better oral health and a more attractive appearance, or if you would like to schedule a visit with our team today, then contact our office today to learn more.
