Non-Surgical Perio Therapy using Waterlase™ is the latest advancement in the field of laser dentistry. It is a safe and effective procedure that does not cause any permanent side effects. An expert performs this treatment and removes different dental problems.

Procedure
A specific Waterlase™ device from Biolase is used to perform Non-Surgical Perio Therapy. Though this procedure is relatively simple, we can divide it into small steps to make it easy for everyone to understand.
The three-step procedure is mentioned below:
- The practitioner sweeps the tip to the base of the periodontal pocket and presses it against soft tissue to remove epithelial lining.
- Waterlase™ then removes the diseased soft tissue granulation tissue and reduces bacteria. It removes calculus and bacteria from the root surface to encourage fibroblast attachment.
- Lastly, the practitioner seals the periodontal pocket with a fibrin clot.
Post-Procedure Care
In order to maintain the results, candidates are supposed to take care of the treated area. It is important to follow the instructions communicated by the dentist.
