Advanced, Minimally Invasive Gum Disease Treatment

Dental laser therapy uses focused light energy to precisely remove diseased gum tissue, kill bacteria, and stimulate the regeneration of healthy tissue. Compared to traditional gum surgery, laser therapy is significantly less invasive, causes less bleeding and swelling, and typically results in a faster, more comfortable recovery.

At Accent Family Dentistry in Angier, NC, Dr. Brenda Gong uses laser therapy as part of a comprehensive periodontal treatment approach — often in conjunction with deep cleaning and Arestin antibiotic therapy for optimal results.

How Laser Gum Therapy Works

During laser therapy, a thin fiber optic tip is gently inserted into the gum pocket. The laser energy selectively removes diseased tissue and kills the bacteria responsible for gum disease without harming healthy surrounding tissue. The laser also seals blood vessels as it works, minimizing bleeding.

Laser therapy is typically performed in conjunction with scaling and root planing for comprehensive treatment of moderate to advanced gum disease.
