Laser Therapy - Alpha Dental

Laser Therapy Periodontal, or gum related care has greatly benefited from laser technology. Tartar in the mouth, if not taken care of, can do real damage to the gums and bone which can lead to tooth loss. It can cause swelling and bleeding which can lead to the gums weakening and eventually receding away from the teeth.
Hygienists can now treat gum disease and help regenerate bone with lasers by sending light energy into the space between the gum and the tooth. The light energy removes the disease-causing bacteria. Before lasers, this was a very painful procedure that required considerable recovery time. Please ask about laser therapy at your next hygiene appointment!
