Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy (LAPT)

LAPT is used during deep dental cleanings, such as root planing and curettage procedures, to remove the diseased, infected, inflamed, and dead soft tissue
within the deep gum pocket. This is a non-surgical procedure, which does not involve the use of a scalpel, and does not require stitches. The removal of the
dead tissue with the dental laser also sterilizes the gum pocket and kills the harmful bacteria throughout the procedure. The dental laser stimulates rapid healing
of the soft tissue, while routinely reducing the size of the gum pockets and promoting the bone regeneration around our patient’s teeth, which results in a
healthier mouth. The laser treatment, in addition to traditional scaling and root planning procedures, can often take the place of surgical periodontal gum
procedures.

Testimonials

1st time visit this week. Was really scared to have a new dentist after 20 yrs. I'm really excited and happy to have picked Dr. Wong as my new dentist. My visit was more than expected. His team was wonderful, too. 2 thumbs up!

My husband has been his patient since 1995. We drive two and one half hours, one way, for Mike to see him. Excellent work every time. The staff in the office is super helpful and always terrific. Thanks, Dr. Dennis Wong - we appreciate you greatly!!!
