Laser Gum treatment and LASER Dentistry
Why do we use laser in doing gum treatment?
• Laser assisted gum surgery helps in removal of the infected gum tissue from around the root of the tooth. Once the area between the gum and the root are infection free, it allows the healing process.
• Lasers provide the benefit of not only removing the bacteria but also killing them. This helps reduce bleeding and swelling of gums. It may even eliminate the need for further gum disease treatment such as gum surgery. There is minimal post-operative discomfort when a laser is used.
• The laser gum treatment is also considered safer for treating patients in whom the conventional surgery is contradicted due to medical reasons. It offers a host of benefits in adjunct to conventional laser gum treatment

Is laser gum treatment painful?
Laser therapy is almost always nearly pain-free. Usually, we use local anaesthetic or just topical anaesthetic to keep you comfortable during the procedure.
