As dental technologies advance, dental treatment becomes more effective and more gentle. LPT treats advanced periodontal disease.

Periodontal disease, when discovered in the mild form, can be reversed with office cleanings and improved dental hygiene. However, advanced periodontal disease requires advanced treatments. Previous treatments for advanced periodontal disease included scraping, root planing or surgery--none of which are very gentle and none of which are as effective as Laser Periodontal Therapy. LPT uses a patented laser technology to remove infected periodontal tissue with minimal discomfort in only a few dental visits. Once this tissue is removed, new, healthy tissue can grow. The results are exponentially more effective than traditional treatments.

Because Laser Periodontal Therapy is so gentle, many people require minimal anesthetic and some actually report that the therapy is warm and soothing. However, Dr. Just also offers sedation options for those who have a low pain tolerance or extreme anxiety about dental procedures. Ask Dr. Just for more information at your next appointment. You can schedule an appointment by calling (907) 337-0304 or schedule an appointment online to have our office contact you.
