What is laser-assisted gum therapy?
Laser-assisted gum therapy uses cutting-edge technology to make treating gum disease faster, more precise, and more comfortable. The laser targets and removes infected tissue and bacteria, promoting quicker healing and encouraging natural gum regeneration. With this advanced method, there’s minimal impact on surrounding tissues.
Because it’s minimally invasive, you’ll experience less discomfort and a shorter recovery time—meaning you’ll be back to enjoying your smile in no time.
