Step 1.

Micro Perio Analysis

Periodontal disease is caused by bacteria, and understanding its specific causes in each case is crucial for effective treatment. We utilise a combination of advanced microscopic examination and DNA Microbiological Analysis technology to diagnose periodontal disease precisely. The severity of the disease is directly linked to the type and amount of bacteria present in the periodontal pockets.

Our comprehensive examination includes the following:

  • Periodontal Check-Up: A thorough assessment of your gums and teeth.

  • Microbiological Analysis

  • Pocket Charting: Detailed measurement of periodontal pockets.

  • Digital X-Rays: High-quality imaging to identify underlying issues.

  • Lifestyle Discussion: Analysis of lifestyle factors and other conditions contributing to the disease.

Together, our advanced and microbiological methods, known as Micro Perio Analysis, allow for sophisticated diagnostics. This gives us an accurate understanding of what is happening in your mouth, enabling us to tailor our Duo-Lase™ treatment plan specifically to you, recognising that each patient is a unique case.

Step 2.

Duo-Lase™ Treatment Process

After the Micro Perio Analysis and cleaning your teeth, two different lasers are used over several sessions to significantly reduce aggressive bacteria and stimulate healing. All treatments are done under a microscope for precision.

Laser 1: Photo-Dynamic Pocket Decontamination

  • Purpose: Dramatically reduces or completely eliminates aggressive bacteria, addressing the root cause of the disease.

Laser 2: Bio Stimulation

  • Purpose: Energises cells to heal effectively and produce collagen fibres in the surrounding tissue.

Treatment Benefits:

  • Reduces Inflammation: The gum inflammation will be removed.

  • Cell Regeneration: A new layer of cells forms on the root surface, aiding in the re-attachment of the gingiva to the tooth.

  • Pocket Closure: Periodontal pockets will be reduced or completely close.

  • Bone Formation: New bone formation strengthens the foundation of all teeth in your mouth.

Advantages of Duo-Lase™:

  • Non-Invasive and Effective: A compelling alternative to traditional surgical methods.

  • Versatile Treatment: Can treat even the most aggressive forms of periodontal disease.

  • Tooth Preservation: Teeth that were marked for extraction might have a good chance to be saved.

After the treatment, a second microbiological test will be done to confirm the success of the treatment.

Step 3.

Healing

Immediate Improvements:

  • Visible and Cellular Level: Each treatment stage leads to immediate improvements, both visible and on a cellular level.

  • Stop Gum Bleeding: Any gum bleeding will stop.

  • Gum Tightening: The gum will feel tight again and form a seal around each tooth.

  • Comfortable Oral Care: Brushing and flossing will become comfortable and pain-free.

Aesthetics and Comfort:

  • Healthy Appearance: The gum will look nice and pink, without swelling.

  • Tightened Teeth: Teeth will feel more secure, making eating more comfortable.

Long-Term Success:

  • Oral Hygiene Regime: A new oral hygiene regime and regular recall visits will ensure the longevity of this successful treatment.
