Gum therapy using lasers.

LASER GUM THERAPY

Laser gum therapy or LANAP is the most effective way to treat gum disease.

Laser gum therapy not only gives comfort during and after treatment, but also shows a better result by repairing and laying down new bone.

Gum disease or Periodontal disease is an infection of the tissues surrounding and supporting the teeth.

Gum disease is the major cause of tooth loss in adults.

Early stage of gum disease is called gingivitis.

This is a reversible condition, which can be cured by a professional scaling and proper oral hygiene maintenance.

BEFORE AND AFTER SCALING

Advanced stage of gum disease is called periodontitis.
During this stage your teeth may become loose or even fall down.

SIGNS OF GUM DISEASE:

• Loose teeth.
• Receding gums.
• Bleeding gums.
• Red and swollen gums.
• Bad breath.
• Pockets.

ADVANTAGES OF LASER GUM THERAPY OVER CONVENTIONAL GUM SURGERY:

• Healing and recovery time is shorter.
• No food restrictions.
• No sutures needed.

LASER Gum therapy

   LASER GUM THERAPY @ Rootz Dental Care and Implant Center Thoraipakkam, OMR,Chennai

LASER gum therapy otherwise known as LANAP is a very safe, effective and patient friendly procedure.

LANAP- LASER Assisted New Attachment Procedure 

LANAP treatment is one of the most successful protocols in treating gum diseases. Its effectiveness comes from its ability to target the source of inflammation without hurting or removing any healthy gum tissue. It can slow down or stop attachment losses and can decrease pocket depth. Thus it helps patients recover from chronic infections without the need for scalpel or sutures.

Steps in LANAP
       

Steps 1 to 7; shown in succession as images-

1. Infected and inflammed gum with bone loss

2. LASER light used to clean and remove the infected gum tissue

3. Deep cleaning done

4. Bone curettage (cleaning infected bone tissue)

5. Healthy new gum attachment formation initiated using LASER

6. Bite (occlusion) adjusted

7. Healed area with healthy gum and new bone formation

Advantages of LASER 

• Less pain
• Minimal bleeding
• Reduced level of sensitivity
• No distinctive loss of gum
• Less swelling
• Very little downtime after treatment
• Less Post-op infections
• Promotes regeneration of supporting gum tissues
• Healing is perceived to be faster and more comfortable than conventional surgery

Know about gum diseases

                                                               
What causes gum disease?
 Our mouths are full of bacteria. These bacteria, along with mucus and other particles, constantly form a sticky, colorless “plaque” on teeth. Brushing and flossing help get rid of plaque. Plaque that is not removed can harden and form “tartar” that brushing doesn’t clean. Only a professional cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist can remove tartar.

The longer plaque and tartar are on teeth, the more harmful they become. The bacteria cause inflammation of the gums that is called “gingivitis.”Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease that can usually be reversed with daily brushing and flossing, and regular cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist.

                                                                
When gingivitis is not treated, it can advance to “periodontitis” (which means “inflammation around the tooth”). In periodontitis, gums pull away from the teeth and form spaces (called “pockets”) that become infected. If not treated, the bones, gums, and tissue that support the teeth are destroyed. The teeth may eventually become loose and have to be removed.

                                                                         Periodontitis

How do I know if I have gum disease?

 Patients often don’t understand, or simply ignore, the warning markers of periodontal disease,Symptoms of gum disease include:

•  Bad breath that won’t go away
•  Red or swollen gums
•  Tender or bleeding gums
•  Painful chewing 
•  Loose teeth or gap formation between teeth
•  Sensitive teeth
•  Receding gums or longer appearing teeth 
•  Pus between the gums and teeth
•  Sores in the mouth
•  A change in the way the teeth fit together when one bites down

Any of these symptoms may be a sign of a serious problem, which should be checked by a dentist.Researchers have observed that people with gum disease (when compared to people without gum disease) were more likely to develop heart disease or have difficulty controlling blood sugar.
