Periodontics & Implant Dentistry
Winter Park, FL (PRWEB) August 04, 2014
Dr. Richard Chace, Jr., Dr. Rodney Horvat, and Dr. Scott G. Cohen, now accept new patients from Winter Park, FL, seeking a minimally invasive treatment option for bleeding gums or other symptoms of gum disease. These periodontal specialists are able to utilize a treatment known as the LANAP® laser protocol, which does not involve the use of a scalpel or sutures throughout the procedure. Since the use of the PerioLase® MVP-7™ laser allows the doctors to only target harmful bacteria and diseased gum tissue, there is no need to remove any of the healthy gum tissue. This results in little to no gum recession and makes the process that much more comfortable than traditional methods for patients seeking gum disease treatment in Winter Park, FL.
It should be noted that not only is gum disease incredibly prevalent in the United States, but it is also linked to the development of a number of serious medical conditions. In addition to cardiovascular disease, gum disease is also strongly linked to several different forms of cancer, including pancreatic cancer. According to a recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 47.1 percent of all American adults suffer from some form of gum disease, which underscores the potential underlying issue relating to the other medical conditions that gum disease is linked to. Patients with bleeding gums may therefore wish to seriously consider seeking gum disease treatment in Winter Park, FL as soon as possible.
There are a number of treatment options available through this periodontal office, but patients who are seeking minimally invasive gum disease treatment in Winter Park, FL may want to consider exploring LANAP® treatment as an option. The LANAP® protocol uses a targeted approach that treats bleeding gums and the other symptoms of gum disease without having to cut away at the gum line. An added benefit of this laser treatment option lies in its ability to encourage bone regeneration in treatment areas. Bone loss is a serious problem for those having gum disease, and LANAP® treatment helps to mitigate the risk of tooth loss resulting from this progressive oral infection.
Unlike traditional methods, the LANAP® laser protocol is a gum disease treatment option that causes minimal discomfort and requires less healing and recovery time. Patients who are interested in LANAP® laser surgery as a treatment option should call the office of Dr. Chace, Dr. Horvat, and Dr. Cohen to schedule an appointment for a consultation.
