Laser gum treatment is a modern, tissue-friendly approach to managing gingivitis and periodontitis. By using focused light energy to decontaminate infected pockets and support healing, we can reduce bleeding, tenderness and pocket depths with minimal discomfort and faster recovery.
Minimally Invasive
Precise energy targets bacteria and inflamed tissue while preserving healthy gums.
Reduced Bleeding & Swelling
Laser coagulation supports comfort during and after treatment.
Antibacterial Effect
Decontaminates periodontal pockets and helps disrupt biofilm re-growth.
Biostimulation
Low-level energy can promote soft-tissue healing and comfort post-therapy.
Who Is It For?
- Bleeding gums and early gingivitis
- Chronic periodontitis with pockets that bleed on probing
- Peri-implant mucositis (inflamed gums around implants)
- Patients seeking a gentle option with quicker recovery
Suitability depends on pocket depth, bone levels and overall oral hygiene; your periodontist will confirm after examination.
How Treatment Works
- Assessment: Periodontal charting and imaging to map pocket depths and risk factors.
- Scaling & Root Planing: Deep cleaning to remove plaque and calculus below the gumline.
- Laser Decontamination: Targeted light energy disinfects pockets and trims inflamed tissue.
- Biostimulation: Low-level passes can reduce sensitivity and support healing (case-dependent).
- Maintenance: Home-care coaching and regular supportive periodontal therapy.
Aftercare & Recovery
Most patients return to daily life the same day. Expect mild tenderness for 24–48 hours. Brush gently along the gumline, avoid very hot/spicy foods on day one, and follow your personalised hygiene routine. Review visits monitor pocket depth reduction and adjust your maintenance interval (often every 3–6 months).

Safety & Limitations
Laser therapy complements—not replaces—professional cleaning and good home care. Very deep or non-responding sites may still require surgical periodontal therapy. We use protective eyewear and calibrated settings for safe, predictable results.
