True Periodontal Regeneration with TwinLight Lasers
Do you have bad breath, tooth sensitivity, receding or bleeding gum? These could be signs of gum disease. You are not alone. Nearly half of all adults aged 30 years or older show signs of periodontal disease and 7 out 10 adults 65 years and older have gum disease.
Bacteria in the mouth infect tissue surrounding the tooth, causing inflammation around the tooth leading to periodontal disease. When bacteria stay on the teeth long enough, they form a film called plaque, which eventually hardens to tartar making teeth harder to clean.
Our doctors have completed advanced training in periodontics and lasers and will use their expertises to help you treat your specific condition.

Fotona’s TwinLight® Periodontal Treatment (TPT) is a comprehensive and minimally invasive periodontal therapy incorporating the power of dentistry’s two most effective laser wavelengths: Er:YAG and Nd:YAG.
The TwinLight® approach enables wavelength-optimized treatments for periodontal therapy (such as WPT™), which create the optimal conditions for healing periodontal tissues. What’s more, TPT prevents infection and promotes reduction in pocket depths.
Different Uses of Periodontal Lasers
LANAP
Laser-assisted new attachment procedure or LANAP. It’s laser protocol with FDA cleared for re-growing the tissues and bone lost to gum disease. Compared to traditional osseous surgery, patients say the LANAP protocol is:
- Less painful
- Less post-op sensitivity
- Less gum loss (gum recession)
- Very little downtime after treatment
Peri-implantitis
Peri-implant diseases are inflammatory conditions affecting the soft and hard gum tissues around dental implants. Similar to a natural tooth, bacteria can build up on the base of the implant, below the gum line.
TwinLight is one of the most effective methods of peri-implantitis treatment, successful in meeting the objective of controlling infection through the decontamination of peri-implant tissues and arresting disease progression. It avoids thermal damage to the surrounding bone and significant alterations of the implant surface, caused by mechanical or chemical therapies.
