Laser Gum Therapy in Montebello, California
Protecting Patients in Whittier, Pico Rivera, Commerce, and East Los Angeles from Gum Disease
Laser gum therapy is an innovative treatment option that uses focused light energy to target gum tissue affected by gum disease, gingivitis, and gum inflammation. This minimally invasive procedure can reduce the need for traditional surgical methods and promote faster healing. Greenwood Dental Group proudly offers laser gum therapy as a gentle and effective option for our general dentistry patients.
How Laser Gum Therapy Works
Laser gum therapy utilizes a special dental laser to target and remove infected gum tissue with precision and minimal discomfort. During the procedure, the dentist or periodontist directs the laser's concentrated light energy at the affected areas, carefully eradicating bacteria and diseased tissue while preserving healthy gum structure. Patients often find laser gum therapy to be less painful and less invasive, resulting in shorter recovery times and an overall more pleasant experience.
Our team at Greenwood Dental Group is dedicated to providing the latest in dental technology to help you receive the best possible care. We'll guide you through each step of the laser gum treatment process for your comfort and understanding as we work to enhance your oral health.
Is Laser Gum Therapy Safe?
Laser gum therapy is considered a safe and effective treatment option for various gum issues. One of the key benefits of using lasers in dental procedures is their precision. The laser can precisely target and remove infected or diseased gum tissue without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. This precision reduces the risk of complications and enhances the overall safety of the procedure. Additionally, because the laser sterilizes the area as it works, the risk of infection is significantly minimized, leading to healthier outcomes and quicker recovery times.
Another advantage of laser gum therapy is that it is a minimally invasive procedure, so incisions or sutures are unnecessary. This generally results in less bleeding and discomfort for the patient during and after the treatment. The laser also promotes tissue regeneration for faster healing and better long-term gum health.

The Success Rate of Laser Gum Therapy
Laser gum therapy boasts a high success rate, primarily due to its ability to precisely target and eliminate diseased tissue while preserving healthy gum structure. Patients who undergo this treatment often experience significant improvements in gum health, reduced inflammation, and a lower chance of recurrence of gum disease.
Laser gum therapy is so successful because it addresses existing gum problems and helps prevent future issues. The laser's ability to stimulate tissue regeneration means that healthier, new tissue can grow, reinforcing the gum line and providing better support for your teeth.

Caring For Your Gums After Laser Treatment
Proper care following laser gum therapy is crucial to getting the best results and maintaining healthy gums. After your procedure at Greenwood Dental, our team will provide you with detailed post-treatment instructions to aid in your recovery.
Generally, it's important to avoid hard or crunchy foods that could irritate your healing gums. Sticking to a soft diet for a few days can help minimize discomfort and promote faster recovery. Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is also essential. Gently brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing carefully around the treated areas will keep your mouth clean and reduce the risk of infection. Additionally, we encourage using an antimicrobial mouth rinse to keep harmful bacteria at bay and support your gum health.
It's also beneficial to keep regular follow-up appointments with our dental team. These visits allow us to monitor your progress and check that your gums are healing properly. During these appointments, we’ll look for any signs of complications and provide additional guidance on oral care if needed.
