LPTTM
is about as easy as erasing a blackboard — there’s no cutting and no
suturing. |
 |
There's much less discomfort with LASER ASSISTED NEW ATTACHMENT PROCEDURETM
than with standard surgery -- during and after the procedure. |
 |
It takes less time than traditional surgery. All it takes is two 2-hour
visits to the dentist and two follow up visits. Traditional surgery
requires four sessions of about one hour each, with subsequent visits for
suture removal and additional check-ups. |
 |
LPTTM
gives better, longer-lasting results. In fact, 98% of LPTTM
treated patients remain stable after five years, while only 5% reportedly
remain stable after surgery. |
 |
Your dentist will probably recommend a soft diet for a day or two, and
common sense should prevail, but in most cases, patients feel good enough
to eat anything they want right after the procedure. |
 |
Following traditional surgery, recovery can take between to 2-4 weeks
during which patients can experience considerable pain and swelling, where
they may be restricted to liquid or soft diets. |
 |
There's less than 24 hour recovery period, so you won't lose time from
work. |
 |
LASER PERIODONTAL THERAPYTM
is safe for patients with health concerns such as diabetes, HIV,
hemophilia, or those taking medications such as Coumadin or Cyclosporin. |
