Soft tissue laser can be absorbed through water and hemoglobin. These lasers are used in the treatment of periodontitis, including killing bacteria and activating tissue regeneration. Soft tissue laser seals nerve endings and blood vessels when penetrating the tissue, so the patient hardly feels pain after laser treatment. The lasers also promotes faster tissue healing.
Compared with traditional treatment, Diode laser is simple and convenient to operate, and has unique functions in sterilization, removal of contaminated layer, gasification of dental calculus, and relief of dentin sensitivity.
A periodontal disease starts when the bacteria, (often found in plaque), infect the areas around the teeth and form the hardened substance called calculus.
The research shows that laser can deal with the inflammatory granulation tissue in the inner wall of the periodontal bag and the disinfection of the bag, and solve the traditional way in the treatment of periodontitis in the absence of thorough cleaning abuses.The effect of laser combined with conventional mechanical curettage is better than that of single mechanical treatment.
A root canal system that is free of infected microorganisms is essential to achieve a periapical healing. Enterococcus faecalis (EF) has been found to be one of the predominant bacteria that are associated with chronic periodontitis and failed root canal treatment.
As periodontitis usually occurs in the context of untreated periodontal disease, it is essential to carry out periodontal treatment of the whole mouth prior to oral implant placement or treatment of periodontitis.
Vestibuloplasty is a mucogingival procedure that aims at the surgical modification of the gingiva-mucous membrane relationships including deepening of the vestibular trough, altering the position of the frenulum or muscle attachments, and widening of the zone of attached gingiva.
