To Our Valued Patients,

Your safety, your protection, and your health are our primary concerns in this time of crisis.

We understand and deeply respect that you may be worried about the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) in public places…even at our up-to-date sterilized office.

At A Downtown Dental Group, I want to assure you that our office has even further heightened our already rigid sterilization safeguards, office cleaning standards and personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize the possibility of transmission to you, our wonderful patients and to our outstanding team. We have exceeded all standards for sterilization and patient care, for your protection.

Our first priority is always your health and well-being. That is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing. Your dental health remains important to us, because it plays such an important role in your overall health.

When you visit our office, you’ll see we’ve taken all the necessary steps to ensure you have the best patient experience possible. For everyone’s safety, if you are experiencing any symptoms, please do not come to our office and call us to reschedule your appointment. If we see symptoms in our patients, or our team, we will reschedule the appointment on the spot and make sure affected staff members are isolated and self-quarantined.

It is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you… and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon, when everything is better.

Laser Gum Treatment In Honolulu Will Improve Your Oral Health

Seventy percent of adults in the United States have gum disease. That number is absolutely staggering, especially when you consider how gum health impacts your overall health. There are a variety of treatment options, all with these common goals: kill the germs and viruses, remove the infection, and heal the diseased gum pockets. We do all of that with exceptional comfort using laser gum treatment in Honolulu. You can expect:

  • Faster Healing – Laser therapy kills the bacteria and viruses that cause gum disease and can stimulate tissue healing.
  • Minimal Discomfort – Patients report more comfort with laser gum treatment.
  • Reduced Inflammation – Diode laser treatment can remove bacteria, viruses, and diseased tissue without harming healthy tissue.
  • Reduced Risk Of Infection – Diode lasers kill bacteria and viruses so the risk of infection and complications are lower.

Call us at 808-797-3680 to schedule your next cleaning and exam. Early detection of gum disease is our goal so that minimal treatment is necessary and maintenance is simpler. We want to avoid any type of surgery if at all possible. This is what we want to accomplish for you. We can start with diode laser gum disease therapy.

Laser Treatment Heals & Protects Your Gums

The first recommendation for treatment for the early stages of periodontal or gum disease is usually a deep cleaning of all your teeth. If your early stage gum infection treatment does not work entirely, or if the disease is moderate or severe, which means many more germs are present than in the early stages, we may recommend gum surgery.

Traditional gum surgery involves the use of a scalpel to cut the gums and treat the disease. Not only is it uncomfortable, but there is also the risk of gum recession, which means more of the roots are exposed. There may be more teeth sensitivity as well as a higher risk of cavities on the exposed roots.

Laser gum therapy is a new alternative to traditional gum surgery. Laser gum therapies are less invasive and less painful, and they offer faster recovery.

Diode laser therapy has been shown by research to kill the bacteria and viruses that cause gum disease and to reduce the number of bacteria and viruses that can enter the bloodstream and possibly affect your heart. It is an excellent way to treat early gum disease and to do routine periodontal or gum disease maintenance.

LANAP laser gum surgery may be indicated if your gum disease is more severe. This is the most advanced laser gum surgery available. We work closely with a specialist who is specifically trained to do this type of laser surgery.

If you suspect that you have gum disease, call us now at 808-797-3680 to find out more about laser gum treatment in Honolulu. We can help you come up with a treatment plan that works!
