Newest Laser periosurgery

Newest Laser periosurgery

Periolase®, the latest conservative gum therapy uses a tiny laser fiber (about the thickness of three hairs) that is inserted between the gum and the tooth. It gently disinfects and clears away the diseased tissues from around the tooth and gum pocket. This new laser therapy is gentler, less painful, and has a quicker recovery time than traditional cut and sew gum surgery. The procedure usually takes just two 2-hour sessions.

NTI System

NTI System

Do you suffer from migranes or tension headaches? The FDA-approved method of migrane prevention is the NTI system.

A small plastic device is worn over your front teeth while you sleep. This device helps eliminate headaches as it allows your jaw to relax and reduces the intense clenching which occurs during your sleep.

FAQ

How often should I brush my teeth?

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends brushing your teeth twice a day with an ADA-accepted fluoride toothpaste. Your toothbrush should be replaced every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles are frayed.

What causes bad breath?

If you do not brush and floss daily, particles of food will remain in your mouth, collecting bacteria, which can cause bad breath. Food that collects between the teeth, around the gums or on your tongue can rot, leaving an extremely unpleasant odor.

How often should I go to the Dentist for checkups?

For most people, twice a year is usually sufficient; however, only you, your dentist and your hygienist can determine how often is actually necessary. Checkups are needed for regular assessments of the condition and well being of your mouth; therefore, regular checkups are a MUST in order to maintain a healthy, happy smile!

Can I prevent gum disease?

You can help prevent periodontal (gum) disease by:
Brushing your teeth really well twice a day (with a toothbrush in good condition).
Cleaning between your teeth with floss or an interdental cleaner.
Eating a balanced diet that limits between meal snacks and visiting your dentist regularly.
