• Tartar is sharp crystals that cut and irritate gums, resulting in swollen, bleeding, and sometimes painful gums.

• Chronically diseased gums, as described above, causes BONE LOSS over time, resulting in visually long, loose teeth. Ultimately these periodontally affected teeth will be lost. This has a tremendous social, physical and emotional impact on one's holistic well-being.

• The teeth appear visually longer as the bone dissolves and the gum recedes.

• The recession causes the dentine/cementum of the root that is usually embedded in bone and covered with the periodontal ligament to be exposed to mechanical brushing and acid attack, causing first mild, but later severe deeply eroded tooth necks.

• Therefore the following is of the utmost importance:

​

REGULAR ORAL HYGIENE VISITS & PROPER ORAL HYGIENE PRACTICES & USE OF CORRECT DENTAL PRODUCTS

​

• No more open flap, painful surgical procedures.

• In combination with this revolutionary concept, we do laboratory testing of the DNA of the specific bacteria in the mouth that need to be targeted with the correct antibiotics, mechanical oral hygiene techniques, and regular dental follow-up visits (for the first month weekly, then for the following two months, twice a week, and then for three months, once a month)

• We also do a DNA test of your susceptibility for periodontal disease to determine if you should visit the dentist more regularly than once a year or six-monthly.

• With local anaesthetic, light energy is applied, moving the laser tip in the space between the teeth and the bone.

• Tartar and infected gum tissue are removed.

• Then the crest of the bone is cleaned and smoothened.

• Then the outer epithelium of the gum is removed.

• This process is comfortable and is done with ordinary local anaesthesia.

• Growth factors and wound healing are activated.

• The bone and periodontal ligament then get the chance to adhere to the perfectly cleaned and sterilized cementum of the root surfaces.

• Precisely scheduling follow-up visits for bio-stimulation and bacterial reduction, disclosing biofilm, adjusting oral hygiene techniques in problem areas, and removing the biofilm is of the utmost importance.

• Laser therapy cannot be successful without ABSOLUTE PATIENT COMPLIANCE regarding IMMACULATE ORAL HYGIENE PRACTICES and PRECISE TIMED VISITS the dentist and oral hygienist as scheduled.

• Application of Light energy in the correct dose and exposure time aids in bio-stimulation and bacterial reduction. In combination with the uber-important patient compliance, it allows not only the periodontal ligament to attach again; it can even result in BONE REGENERATION, with the gum that follows, reducing recession.

• At the least, laser periodontal treatment prevents further bone loss around the teeth, stopping this debilitating disease in its tracks!

• ​The gums will become pink and firm, and bleeding will stop. Bleeding is always an indicator of the presence of gum disease.

• Simultaneously pain is reduced and the area sterilized.

• PERIODONTAL DISEASE and infections in the mouth are associated with diabetes, heart conditions, foci of infection in organs, and small strokes that can be devastating for the patient and the patient's family.

• Periodontal bacteria have also been described to have been present in cancer lesions.

• Keep your body free of infection for overall health and well-being!
