Periodontal Laser - PerioLase
The PerioLase from Millennium Dental Technologies is a specialized Nd:YAG (Neodymium: Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) laser with unique features that enable periodontists and general dentists to successfully treat tissue procedures for managing and controlling tissue loss accruing to severe gum disease. For some patients, loose mobile teeth can be restrengthened through changes in connective tissue.Click here to watch a video animation of how the PerioLase treatment is performed.

Minicycline exerts its antimicrobial activity by prohibiting ptotein synthesis of the bacteria and has been shown to be effective against the pathogens associated with periodontal disease. Arrestin is a powder that is blown into the pockets with a special syringe (plastic tube, not a needle). It maintains its therapeutic drug concentration for up to 21 days of administration.

An EXTREMELY GRAPHIC video showing rapid, minimally invasive protocols for removing 8 teeth on a lower jaw... in less than 5 minutes. Strict adherance to extraction protocols developed in Europe enable extractions that appear to be almost effortless and least traumatic for the patient. Destruction of jawbone during extractions is eliminated and minimizes need for bone grafting.

Another example of how an upper arch with significant bone loss can be augmented with popular graft products and procedures to create a tight fitting upper denture.
The lower jaw had sufficient bone to create a cantilevered hybrid implant supported fixed porcelain bridge product providing the full complement of 12 new porcelain teeth. Normalized occlusion and bite was recreated with a functionally matched upper denture.
