Laser Gum Treatment: A Revolution in Oral Care
At Gorbatov Dentistry, we believe in staying at the forefront of dental innovations. The laser gum treatment, although in its infancy, demonstrates promising results for suitable candidates and represents the state-of-the-art procedures we strive to provide. Below, we explore the intricacies of this cutting-edge therapy.
Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal or gum disease is an infection of the tissues supporting your teeth. Commonly found in adults, it can lead to serious oral health issues if not treated promptly. Causes include:
- Poor oral hygiene
- Smoking
- Chronic illnesses, such as diabetes
- Certain medications
- Genetic susceptibility
How Laser Gum Treatment Works
Unlike traditional methods such as scaling and root planing (SRP) or gum flap surgery, laser therapy utilizes a dental laser to precisely remove infected gum tissue. This approach facilitates healthy regeneration of gum tissue and minimizes discomfort and recovery time.
Risks and Benefits
Laser gum treatment offers numerous advantages, such as:
- Minimized need for general anesthetic
- Targeted treatment of diseased areas
- Reduced bleeding, pain, and swelling
- Shorter recovery and healing times
While medical authorities continue to study the effectiveness of this therapy, the results seen at our oceanfront office in Hollywood have been encouraging. Still, it's essential to consult with Dr. Dmitry Gorbatov, who has over 30 years of experience, to ensure this therapy is suitable for your specific needs.
Costs and Insurance Coverage
Investing in your oral health is a vital aspect of overall wellness. The cost of laser gum treatment varies depending on individual needs. It can be an economical option, requiring fewer visits and less medication. Insurance coverage should be verified prior to therapy to ascertain the extent of reimbursement.
Post-Therapy Dental Care
Maintaining robust oral hygiene after therapy is key to preventing a recurrence of inflammation. Regular brushing, rinsing with an antimicrobial product, and cessation of smoking can foster healthy gums. Follow the personalized instructions from Dr. Gorbatov, and experience the world-class cosmetic dental services that patients from all over the world, including Russia, England, Spain, and beyond, have come to cherish and trust.
Should you wish to explore laser gum treatment or any other upscale dental services offered at our clinic neighboring Hallandale Beach and Sunny Isles Beach, please contact us. We are here to help you radiate confidence through enhanced well-being and appearance, and look forward to being part of your journey towards optimal oral health.
