Are Lasers Useful in the Treatment of Periodontal Disease?
Unfortunately at this time, despite Laser Manufacturer’s claims, there is just no evidence AT THIS TIME to support the use of Lasers in treating PD. Lasers ARE used in minor surgical procedures; this results in less bleeding, but with a slight increase in healing time. Once Lasers are shown to really do what they claim, you can bet that every Periodontist will have one!
