Periodontal (Gum) Disease
Periodontal diseases occur when a bacterial infection develops where the gums join the teeth. Harmful bacteria release enzymes that can cause underlying bone loss, receding gums and eventual tooth loss.
We are happy to introduce a painless treatment for gum disease!
Periowave is a new laser dentistry tool that kills bacteria associated with gum disease without promoting antibiotic resistance or causing fungal or other infections that may occur from ‘good’ bacteria being destroyed along with the ‘bad’. The treatment is simple-it’s administered chairside by your dental hygienist and only takes 60 seconds per pocket. An added bonus – there is no home care or follow up required.
Periowave utilizes a non-thermal (cool) laser light combined with a photosensitizing solution designed to kill bacteria associated with diseases. Killing the bacteria halts the progression of the disease and allows healing to begin.
Periowave is proven to be:
Quick
Painless
Safe
Effective
Non-antibiotic
