    Laser Gum Therapy

    Laser Gum Therapy

    laser therapy

    Gentler gum treatment, powered by our laser.

    We use a soft-tissue laser alongside deep cleanings to clear bacteria and help gums heal, with less discomfort and downtime.

    Laser-assisted periodontal therapy (LAPT)

    During or after scaling and root planing, the laser targets infected tissue and bacteria deep in the gum pockets that instruments can miss. This supports better healing of the gums against the tooth.

    Laser bacterial reduction (LBR)

    We also use the laser during routine hygiene visits to reduce harmful bacteria before a cleaning. It's a quick, comfortable step that helps protect your gums over time, and it's our most common use of the laser.

    Why patients like it

    Less bleeding, less post-treatment soreness, and quicker recovery than traditional gum surgery for many cases. See our full laser dentistry → page for other uses.

    Treatment benefits

    Laser gum therapy uses a soft-tissue dental laser to treat gum disease and reduce bacteria, often alongside a deep cleaning. It can mean less bleeding, less discomfort, and faster healing than traditional methods. It's the laser work we use most at PARCS Dentistry in Las Vegas.

    Questions?

    Here's everything you need to know before you reach out.

    Does laser gum therapy hurt?

    Most patients find it more comfortable than traditional treatment. We still numb the area when needed.

    Does it replace a deep cleaning?

    No, it works alongside scaling and root planing to improve the result.

    Is laser bacterial reduction worth it at a cleaning?

    It's a quick step that lowers harmful bacteria and supports gum health, especially if you're prone to gum issues.
