Lasers are revolutionizing the treatment of periodontal disease.  As a periodontist practicing in NYC, it is important to offer the latest treatment options.  Lasers provide an outstanding service for my patients.

Fear and anxiety can be a barrier to seeking periodontal therapy.  Laser periodontal treatment can provide a pleasant and less intimidating experience than traditional periodontal surgical treatment.  In addition, a patient’s recovery is virtually pain free. There is no bleeding and there are no sutures.  Most of our patients find the recovery period to be less than 24 hours and no time need be taken off from work.

Laser periodontal treatment includes the following procedures:

·         Deep pocket therapy

·         Esthetic crown lengthening for a gummy smile

·         Tooth extraction

·         Frenectomy

·         Soft tissue biopsy

If you have been told that you have gum disease and require periodontal surgery, there may be an alternative.  To find out more about laser periodontal treatment please call our office to schedule a consultation.  Laser treatment may be right for you.
