Laser Hygiene
Zap Away Gum Disease-Causing Bacteria
Periodontal disease is spreading at alarming rates. In the United States, over 80% of adults suffer from painful gum inflammation. Routine dental hygiene, such as regular brushing and flossing, and regular check-ups and cleanings at the dentist, can assist in safeguarding us. Our primary goal at Rivers Edge Dental is to give our patients the highest level of dental treatment because we feel you deserve it. As a result, all of our hygienists provide bacterial laser reduction as part of every hygiene appointment. Are you looking for laser hygiene in Coolidge, Arizona?
What is Laser Bacterial Reduction Hygiene?
Dental lasers attack and destroy germs that cause inflammation and periodontal pockets in seconds. These lasers reduce the number of bacteria in the pocket from billions to hundreds. While nothing can replace manual plaque and tartar treatment, laser gum therapy helps cleanse the gum pocket and eradicate bacterial colonies that are too small to be eliminated by standard cleaning devices.
We may substantially reduce the number of dangerous bacteria that affect our dental and overall health by surrounding the teeth with a laser and attacking germs at the microscopic level. The laser is also excellent at reducing and inhibiting bacterial recolonization, resulting in a healthy environment for gum healing and inflammation reduction. This technology, combined with the manual plaque and tartar removal from the teeth, is the most effective way to keep your brilliant smile healthy.
What are the Benefits of Laser Hygiene Therapy?
The advantages of laser bacterial reduction render it superior to other traditional dental approaches. It’s difficult to ignore the benefits that laser bacterial therapy produces.
- Non-invasive treatment
- Minimized pain, swelling, and discomfort
- Minimal bleeding
- No incisions, so no need for stitches
- Shorter healing time
- Long-lasting results
- Reduce the risk of cross-contamination within the mouth during cleaning and treatments
- Boosts the immune system
- Overall improvement to health
- This procedure stimulates the periodontal tissues, making them more resistant to infection
Is Laser Hygiene Safe?
Dental lasers are entirely safe if all safety procedures are strictly adhered to. For example, when we use lasers, everyone in the room must wear eye protection. There are no loud or irritating noises when we utilize the lasers, which can help anxious patients going to the dentist feel more at ease during treatment. Because lasers are so efficient, when Dr. Rodriguez utilizes one to treat a patient, the entire treatment process is usually faster than other dental therapies.
What to Expect During Treatment
