Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy
Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy
Come to us to treat your gum disease!
We use Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy (LAPT), a modern, less painful method to treat periodontal (gum) disease with many benefits.
What is Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy?
It is a modern, minimally invasive treatment for gum disease, utilizing advanced laser technology to treat periodontal (gum) infections and promote healthy tissue regeneration.
This innovative approach offers numerous benefits over traditional methods, providing a more comfortable and effective treatment experience for patients.
How Does It Work?
LAPT uses a specialized dental laser to precisely target and remove diseased tissue and bacteria from the periodontal pockets—spaces that form between the teeth and gums when gum disease is present.
The laser’s energy not only eliminates harmful bacteria but also stimulates the healing and regeneration of the surrounding healthy tissue.
Benefits of Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy
- Minimally Invasive: The laser technique is less invasive than traditional surgery, resulting in minimal discomfort and a faster recovery time.
- Precision: The laser allows for precise targeting of infected areas without affecting surrounding healthy tissue.
- Reduced Bleeding: The laser’s heat helps to cauterize blood vessels, leading to less bleeding during and after the procedure.
- Less Pain and Swelling: Patients typically experience less pain and swelling compared to traditional periodontal surgery.
- Faster Healing: The procedure promotes quicker healing and tissue regeneration.
- Effective Bacterial Elimination: The laser effectively kills bacteria, reducing the risk of infection and promoting healthier gums.

Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy is an excellent option for patients with moderate to severe gum disease who are looking for a less invasive alternative to traditional surgery. It is particularly beneficial for those who have not responded well to other treatments or are seeking a more comfortable and efficient solution.
