Gum disease (also known as periodontal disease) is a bacterial infection that causes the gums to detach from the teeth and the surrounding bone to be progressively eaten away. Untreated gum disease can eventually result in the loss of one or more teeth and can also lead to serious issues with a person’s overall health and contribute to bad breath.
“Gum disease affects many people, yet too few seek treatment because of the discomfort and stress typically associated with treating it,” says Dr. Tom McCawley. “We use laser dentistry, which replaces the cut and stitch treatment of the past and makes treating gum disease comfortable, fast and exceedingly effective.”
The doctors help their patients avoid losing teeth to gum disease with minimally invasive LANAP® treatment. Using this high-tech procedure, Drs. Mark and Tom McCawley eliminate persistent gum disease comfortably and effectively without the need for traditional scalpel surgery. “The laser is highly accurate and gives us a more precise way to eliminate bacteria under the gumline,” says Dr. Mark.
“Because of its minimally invasive nature, healing time is much quicker with LANAP than with conventional gum surgery. Instead of weeks, there’s usually a less-than-24 hour recovery period.” “The laser surgery was actually painless,” says Susan, a patient. “I felt good enough after the treatment, I actually went right back to work.”
In addition to the effectiveness and comfort of treatment, LANAP provides other benefits. The laser stimulates the body’s natural regenerative potential and is approved by the FDA to regenerate bone. With LANAP, we can save teeth that others often can’t.
