Disinfection is a stage in the treatment of periodontal disease. Its aim is to disinfect periodontal pockets and reduce inflammation of the gums.
LASER disinfection
Every periodontal disease requires a rigorous examination of the mouth, to determine which procedure to include in the treatment plan. Laser disinfection is one of the procedures performed by our clinic and forms part of the periodontal treatment plan.
Why have laser disinfection ?
What does LASER disinfection treat ?
Gingivitis and periodontitis are bacterial diseases that can be treated and cured.
They can lead to tooth loss if left untreated.
Certain signs should alert you and prompt you to have a periodontal check-up :
- Red and/or swollen gums
- Bleeding gums
- Bad breath (halitosis)
- Retracted gums
However, as periodontal disease can develop very slowly, we would like to stress the importance of regular periodontal check-ups to check the condition of your gums.
How a laser disinfection session works
The treatment is based on an innovative technology that has been tried and tested for over twenty years: the laser. It is an instrument for deep disinfection of periodontal tissues (gums, ligament, bone) without the need to remove them.
LASER provides pain-free disinfection. Non-surgical and non-invasive, LASER effectively eradicates pathogenic germs and bacteria deep down.
Clinique Dentaire Sana Oris has a dedicated periodontics team to support you throughout your treatment.
Is LASER disinfection painful ?
We place patient comfort at the heart of our periodontal approach: with this in mind, laser is a non-invasive treatment.
Surgery, which is more invasive, is only necessary in certain cases, and LASER treatment often makes it possible to avoid extensive treatment.
The results of periodontal treatment
Periodontal disease can be treated and cured. Periodontal treatment, which includes laser disinfection, effectively eliminates the pathogenic bacteria responsible for the progressive destruction of bone and gums.
LASER disinfection is an essential stage in the treatment of gingivitis and periodontitis, enabling the treatment to progress. LASER disinfection alone is not enough to cure periodontal disease, but it is an integral part of the treatment.
The duration of periodontal treatment varies according to the severity of the disease.
In some cases, periodontal repair techniques such as gingival grafts and bone fillers may be considered, provided the gums are healthy.
The cost of periodontal treatment
After the periodontal check-up, you will be given a tailor-made estimate showing a treatment plan and the associated cost.
