Over 50% of American adults have gum disease–an infection below the gum line. Gum  disease is linked to several health problems–from heart disease, stroke, diabetes and pre-term babies–but only a small percentage of these adults get the treatment they need.Traditional gum disease treatment options involve cutting the gum tissue or extracting the teeth.The LANAP® protocol uses the specific wavelength PerioLase® MVP-7™ dental laser to vaporize bacteria deep within the pockets of the gums while leaving healthy tissue intact.Patients undergoing this type of treatment enjoy fast healing times and more predictable results.Take care of your oral and total health today.
