My Halloween highlight was Laser Periodontal Therapy™ surgery at 9:00 AM, October 31, 2007 to save and restore two hopeless teeth and the gums that surround them.
The laser-based surgery is new in town and is cutting edge (no pun intended). It offers no cutting and no stitches, which means less pain, less bleeding, less swelling, less tissue removal, less down time, and less recovery time.
This was my first laser surgery and I was so nervous walking through the parking lot into the dental office, I think I developed an eye twitch.
The staff smiled and helped me relax while the vanilla-scented nose cone was attached to the Nitrous Oxide hook-up. My periodontist administered numerous Novocaine injections and I was given goggles with green lenses to wear, which would protect my eyes from the laser. It was the ultimate Halloween experience.
My periodontist and his team have the newest equipment and training to control periodontal (gum) disease. If you’ve been told you need periodontal surgery to save your teeth, ask about this new laser technique. It can save your teeth and your money.
What I know for sure is that it’s all connected.

Laser surgery has been recommended for me and I would love to hear Sandra's comments about her results and any pain, etc.
My laser dental surgery was a great experience. I swear, there was no pain and I've had positive results, so far. Thanks for asking. Saundra
Saundra,
Did the surgery save your teeth? Have your gum "pockets" become smaller? This is what my periodontist said would happen to me.

Thanks!
Dear A, my pockets did become smaller. My bottom teeth were saved. Thanks for asking. Sorry it took so long to answer. I had to get another computer tower (used).
Dear A, I am having this type of surgery at the end of the month and am very nervious about it. Were you really pain free the next day? Have the pockets become smaller and saved your teeth?
