Gum surgery in the past required cutting, stitches and extensive healing time. You faced higher risks associated with the surgery, such as infection or excessive bleeding. At Brooklyn dentistry, by relying on the latest technology and lasers to perform procedures like gum recession surgery, your family dentist in Brooklyn provides you with the most modern options when dealing with dental issues that require gum surgery.
Laser technology has made a lasting impact across several medical disciplines. The dental industry is no exception. Since 1994, lasers have been employed for treatments in the field of dentistry. Gum surgery is a condition that has responded especially well to treatment with lasers.
This is still, however, relatively new technology. And while it’s been FDA-approved for years, not all dentists have incorporated laser procedures into their practice. Fortunately, the best dentist in Brooklyn at the Quentin Smile Dental Practice has invested in the equipment. Both father and son dentists are fully trained and highly experienced with laser gum surgery.
Why You May Need Gum Surgery
Gum surgery is often the end result of untreated periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is often referred to, in fact, as gum disease. It’s an infection of the bone and supporting tissues that hold your teeth securely in their position. And while gum disease mostly affects adults over the age of 40, it can and does affect younger people with poor dental hygiene as early as in their 20s.
Gum disease typically occurs due to:
Poor oral health and dental hygiene
Smoking
Diabetes or certain other chronic illnesses
Some medications
Genetic predisposition
