Laser Perio
If you have been told you need scalpel and suture gum surgery, there's a laser alternative you need to learn about.
If you're like 100 million other Americans, you could be one of 50% of Americans who have periodontal disease, the major cause of tooth loss in adults. Periodontal disease starts off as plaque, an opaque film which eventually hardens, forming tartar or calculus.
The way to repair the damage is to get rid of the infection and close up the pockets. Until now, that meant surgery and sutures. But today, Desert Dental offers LASER PERIODONTAL THERAPY TM (LPT TM), a patient-friendly, minimally-invasive procedure that's a great improvement over standard gum surgery.
