LASER BACTERIAL REDUCTION (LBR) WITH DIODE LASER TECHNOLOGY

epic laser dentistry, simply delightful...

Our office uses the Epic Hygiene™ system by Biolase for LBR. Epic Hygiene™ is a new procedure we can add to your routine cleaning appointments to help fight and prevent periodontal disease. This technology can prevent gum (periodontal) disease from worsening and keep your oral tissues and jawbone healthy. These treatments are gentle, often lead to less bleeding than traditional periodontal treatment and require little to no local anesthesia.

This procedure takes about five to 10 minutes and is a comfortable and easy addition to bi-annual teeth cleanings and dental exams. The diode laser device is a painless and clinically proven tool to kill bacteria in the mouth that lead to periodontal disease, reducing infection before it causes further damage.

LBR decontaminates and disinfects periodontal pockets around the teeth where gum tissue has pulled away. This technology treats ulcers and lesions in the oral tissues, removes diseased tissue and performs debridement (removing plaque and tartar from the teeth surfaces and around the gums). The laser treatment aims to stop gums from bleeding and minimize bacterial exposure in other areas of the mouth and body.
