Patient Ask
Is laser treatment for gums worth it?
Dental lasers are playing an increasingly important role in periodontology, providing fast, simple and highly effective treatments for procedures such as closed curettage, gingivoplasty, gum pigmentation removal, crown lengthening, and more. Fotona’s dual-wavelength LightWalker® Er:YAG and Nd:YAG dental lasers are the perfect tools for performing the widest variety of laser-assisted periodontal procedures in a minimally invasive, cost-effective manner.
Is laser gum treatment painful?
While regular local numbing is still required for the laser gum treatment the post operative discomfort is almost nonexistent vs a substantial morbidity after old school gum and osseous surgery.
Why do dentists laser gums?
It’s a method used to kill bacteria and stimulate bone growth around your existing teeth. Laser dentistry treats hypersensitivity, gum disease, and tooth decay, and it can even reshape gum tissue to reduce a “gummy” smile.
What technology is used for laser gum treatment?
Er:YAG laser:
- Laser-assisted new attachment procedure (cementum-mediated periodontal ligament new-attachment to the root surface in the absence of long junctional epithelium)
- Periodontal regeneration – true regeneration of the attachment apparatus (new cementum, new periodontal ligament, and new alveolar bone) on a previously diseased root surface
- Sulcular debridement or soft tissue curettage (removal of diseased or inflamed soft tissue in the periodontal pocket to improve clinical indices including gingival index, gingival bleeding index, probe depth, attachment loss, and tooth mobility)
- Gingivectomy and gingivoplasty
- Implant recovery
- Sulcular debridement
- Removal of subgingival calculi in periodontal pockets with periodontitis by closed or open curettage

Dr Gromov did an excellent job with my implant - I am very happy to have chosen him for my operation. My implant operation was complicated by the fact that the spacing between the surrounding teeth was quite small, and there needed to be a bone graft & sinus lift due to it being two years post-extraction. However, Dr. Gromov did an efficient and beautiful job with my implant, and I also appreciated that he put me at ease with the operation, since I was quite nervous beforehand. Dr. Gromov is a caring and experienced expert in his field and I would highly recommend him to others

I do not regret a minute I chose Dr Gromov. He is a great professional who knows and admires what he does. His confident experience and attitude towards patients and work are outstanding! Doctor was on time, he greeted me with a smile that made me feel calm. He explained to me what he needed to do in steps. I had few easy shots as then he extracted my 2 teeth without any pain and I was surprised how quickly I had my 2 implants installed right after.. I felt really happy I was in good hands and made the right choice! Thank you, Dr Gromov

Dr. Gromov is a great Doctor! He is not only an expert in implants but he is also an expert in numbing. He is great at what he does! He is very professional, very nice and very gentle. I like how he explains everything (step by step) what he does in my mouth and doesn't scare me. He is always very responsive even on the weekends! His staff is as amazing as the doctor. In addition to all of this Dr. Gromov has a very nice office. I strongly recommend Dr. Gromov! Great service! 5!!!
