Advanced Gum Disease Treatment and Laser Dentistry
Periodontal disease can affect the gums as well as the tissues and bone that support the teeth. Bleeding or swollen gums, persistent bad breath, gum recession, changes in tooth spacing, or increasing tooth mobility may indicate a periodontal concern. Evaluating these changes can help establish the extent of the condition and guide treatment decisions.
Patients seeking gum disease treatment near Stow may have different treatment needs depending on the diagnosis. Care can include scaling and root planing, laser-assisted therapy, or periodontal surgery based on the clinical findings.
LANAP laser treatment near Stow, MA, may be incorporated into care for selected periodontal cases. LANAP® combines laser application with mechanical removal of deposits from affected root surfaces as part of a structured periodontal protocol. Suitability, anticipated discomfort, and recovery considerations vary among patients.
LAPIP® may be considered when peri-implant disease affects the tissues around an existing dental implant. For selected dental implant procedures, the team may also use BLAST technology when clinically appropriate. Laser-assisted treatment is not necessary or appropriate for every periodontal condition.
