Laser gum treatment

Laser gum treatment is a treatment performed by preserving healthy tissues without cutting the gum and without the need for stitches. Gum shaping can be performed using laser and harmful structures in the gum can be removed. Since there is no incision in this technique, there is no bleeding and the healing process is extremely comfortable. The use of laser in gingival treatment is treated without leaving any scars in periodontal diseases such as inflammation in soft tissues, gingival swelling and gingival recession.

Especially in the early diagnosis of gum diseases, for example in calculus and tartar formations, very successful results can be obtained with laser without damaging the gums. In case of delay in diagnosis and treatment, gum surgery may be required and the healing process is more troublesome and longer.

How is laser gum treatment performed?

Laser gum treatment is performed using different methods and techniques depending on the gum disease. Some applications can be performed without anaesthesia, but local anaesthesia can be performed before the procedure if deemed necessary.

When there is tartar, tartar and plaque accumulation, these accumulations are cleaned by using laser instead of hand tools used in physical intervention.

If there is gingivitis, removal of infection and harmful structures is performed with laser.

In case of problems with gum colour, the upper layer is removed and the gums are made pink.

If there is irregularity in the gum line, laser gum shaping is performed. If there is a loss in bone volume due to periodontal diseases, bone tissue is stimulated with laser and bone development is helped.

In which diseases is laser gum treatment used?

If the problems related to the gums are not solved, it may even result in tooth loss. Oral and dental health can be protected with early diagnosis and appropriate treatment methods. Laser gum treatment is an effective and safe method used in the treatment of gum diseases. Laser gum treatment can be used in the treatment of the following gum diseases:

Gingivitis (Gingivitis)

Gingivitis, gingivitis, is an infectious disease that occurs in the soft tissue around the tooth. Infection developing in the gums is seen as redness, tenderness, swelling and gingival recession. If not treated early, some cases may result in tooth extraction.

Periodontitis

Periodontitis is a more severe form of gingivitis. If gingivitis is left untreated, the infection progresses and damages the periodontal fibres and the jawbone. If the infection at this level is not treated in time, the teeth begin to wobble, fall out or have to be extracted.

Laser, which is used as an alternative to surgical procedures in gingivitis and periodontitis, offers an effective and practical treatment. Apart from these diseases, laser gum recession, gum cleaning and curettage treatments can also be performed.

Gum recession treatment with laser

Laser gum recession treatment is performed by cleaning the infected gum tissues. Harmful tissues and bacteria are removed from the gum without incision and suturing. The healing time is shortened, so that laser gum recession treatment is performed more quickly.

Laser gum cleaning

Laser gum cleaning is the removal of infected gum tissues in gingivitis such as gingivitis and periodontitis.

Laser gum curettage

Laser gum curettage is a treatment to remove tartar accumulation that has advanced to the root surface. Curettage is performed with a hard tissue laser under the gum. According to the curettage procedure performed physically, hard-to-reach spots are easily cleaned with laser.
