Periowave

Do you have Periodontal Disease?

Do you have red, swollen, bleeding gums, persistent bad breath or tooth sensitivity?  You may have some form of periodontal disease.
Dentists & Dental Hygienists evaluate the health of your gums during an examination that includes probe readings to measure the depth of your pockets. 
 
Periodontal diseases occur when a bacterial infection develops where the gums join the teeth.  Harmful bacteria release enzymes that can cause underlying bone loss, receding gums and eventual tooth loss.

Periowave TM is a quick and painless technology that works to kill the bacteria associated with periodontal diseases without the promotion of antibiotic resistance.
 
Periowave TM utilizes a non-thermal laser light combined with a photosensitizing solution designed to kill bacteria associated with the deseases.  Killing the bacteria halts the progression of the disease and allows healing to begin.
