Who is a good candidate for laser dentistry?
There are many cases in which a laser gum treatment may be used. The laser may be implemented for periodontal disease to eliminate plaque and bacteria deep in your gums' pockets. During a biopsy, the laser is used to excise tissue in the needed region. Laser gum treatment may also be helpful if you want to eliminate overgrown gum tissue and increase the visible enamel to get a more attractive smile. Compared to conventional surgery on the gums, laser gum therapies are less invasive and don't need sutures. You may require less (or no) anesthesia during this treatment and have a shorter healing time.
Hope Family Dentistry Reviews
Dr. Hope's practice is one I would highly recommend. Dr hope has a very friendly and kind demeanor and chair side manner that is second to none. His staff as a whole are wonderfully kind, informative and skilled. From their dental assistant to their receptionist you will encounter warm and genuine professionals. There is much to be said about getting a cavity filled and to be so at ease you could fall asleep in the dental chair!

What should you expect on the day of laser gum treatment?
Laser gum treatment is an in-office procedure that typically only requires local anesthesia. Nevertheless, additional sedation options may be available if you have dental fears or anxiety. Before your procedure, our dental team will go over what you should expect throughout the procedure, whether you are being treated for gum disease, obtaining a dental biopsy, having your teeth lengthened, or undergoing aesthetic gum contouring. The laser minimizes bleeding and frequently omits the need for stitches.
What is recovery after laser gum treatment like?
Our dental team will provide you with home care instructions before you are discharged to leave. As your gums may be sore or swollen, you might want to adhere to a liquid or soft food diet for a few days. For gum disease treatment or crown lengthening, you may need to schedule another appointment so Our dental team can evaluate your progress and decide if another treatment is needed. If any area of the mouth was biopsied during the procedure, you may need to return to our office to get your results.
