Gum Disease Treatment

Introduction to Gum Disease Treatment

Gum Disease Treatment is a major and sought-after procedure in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles. Known as periodontal diseases, these gum intruders are the stealthy adversaries of your oral health, slowly eroding the support of your natural teeth through gum infections. The battlefield of gum disease is diverse, with various entities requiring unique treatment approaches. At the heart of this struggle lies dental plaque—the primary culprit for gum disease in those genetically predisposed.

Surprisingly, adults over 35 lose more teeth to gum diseases than to cavities. In fact, three out of four adults will face this challenge at some point in their lives. The secret weapon against cavities and periodontal disease? Consistent and proper tooth brushing and flossing techniques are practiced daily.

Periodontal disease and decay both originate from bacterial plaque, a colorless film that stubbornly clings to your teeth at the gum line. This relentless invader forms constantly, but with diligent daily brushing and flossing, you can remove these harmful germs and defend against periodontal disease. Signature Dental is here for you when this condition starts to interfere with your daily life. Keep reading to learn more about gum disease treatment in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles.

Gum Disease Laser Therapy

Dr. Costescu is proud to offer the latest technology available for periodontal therapy: laser treatment. There are numerous advantages to using laser therapy as opposed to the traditional methods requiring a scalpel and sutures.

Uses of Dental Lasers

Dr. Costescu can perform a variety of procedures using laser technology, such as a frenectomy, osseous surgery, and gum grafting. Dr. Costescu is also able to use laser technology as a way to regenerate healthy gums and remove diseases areas in a virtually painless way. This method also encourages healthy gum to regenerate and attach to the teeth. There is a much lower chance of gum disease returning when laser therapy is used as opposed to traditional surgery.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

Comfort — With laser treatment, there is reduced or no bleeding, minimized swelling, no charring, and no drill noise or vibration. The stress and anxiety often associated with dental work is therefore eliminated when you experience quick, effective, and essentially pain-free laser procedures. Also, postoperative sensitivity is greatly limited by laser dentistry, and recovery time is much quicker than with traditional methods. In fact, due to the less-invasive nature of the laser technique, the mouth begins to heal immediately after work is completed!

Reduced Risk of Infection — The laser’s high-energy light beam acts as a sterilizer on the area it is working, thereby reducing the risk of bacterial infections and relapses.

Anesthesia Limited or Eliminated — Because laser dentistry is virtually painless, no longer will you suffer with fear of injections and numbness. Often, only a light anesthetic spray is required. Laser treatment eliminates the complications and cost associated with anesthesia.
