It stands for “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation,” and lasers are changing the way we look at medicine. From brain surgery to hair plugs, we are finding more and more uses for the laser. Somewhere on the spectrum is how your Savannah periodontist treats gum disease — with a little something called the PerioLase.
It is estimated, more than 3 million new cases of periodontal disease (gum disease) are diagnosed in the United States each year. Periodontal disease is a very common condition that is easily preventable with the right oral hygiene and regular appointments to your dentist. However, even with the best oral hygiene, periodontal disease can still develop. When caught during the first stage of the disease, known as gingivitis, the condition is easily treatable without producing any long-term damage. As your dentist for gum disease in Savannah, we offer the care you need to prevent and treat periodontal disease.

As your periodontist in Savannah, we look at gums every day. From pink, whole, healthy gums to infected gums and receding gums, we see the whole range of periodontal health. We know how to keep this periodontal tissue healthy: excellent dental hygiene at home and regular preventive dental care. That’s why the news that flossing was removed from the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture Dietary Guidelines came as a surprise to us — a frustrating shock, to be completely honest. The firestorm that followed this news (people proclaiming the end of flossing, etc.) is filled with misinformation that’s detrimental to everyone’s oral health.
