Effective Gum Therapy

Combating Gum Disease With Laser WPT™

The leading cause of tooth loss for adults in the United States is periodontal disease or gum disease, which is related to heart disease, blood pressure, diabetes, and respiratory infections. This disease causes bad breath and dry mouth. It also increases tooth and gum sensitivity, which could lead to gum inflammation and bleeding.

Periodontal disease is caused by plaque buildup when one does not brush or floss regularly. Once plaque hardens and forms tartar, professional cleaning is required.

At Family Dental Care, we offer wavelength-optimized treatments for periodontal therapy called Laser WPT™. This minimally invasive procedure is a laser therapy treatment that does not involve scalpels or sutures. It is an advanced alternative to conventional painful surgery for gum disease. Laser WPT™ lets you heal your gums naturally, without incisions or stitches, and lets you get back to your day-to-day routine quickly. It also helps in saving and restoring teeth.
