WHY IS LPT better?

• LPT^TM is about as easy as erasing a blackboard — there’s no cutting and no suturing.
  
  
• There's much less discomfort with LASER PERIODONTAL THERAPY^TM than with standard surgery -- during and after the procedure.
  
  
• It takes less time than traditional surgery. All it takes is two 2-hour visits to the dentist and two follow up visits. Traditional surgery requires four sessions of about one hour each, with subsequent visits for suture removal and additional check-ups.
  
   
• LPT^TM gives better, longer-lasting results. In fact, 98% of LPT^TM treated patients remain stable after five years, while only 5% reportedly remain stable after surgery.
  
  
• Your dentist will probably recommend a soft diet for a day or two, and common sense should prevail, but in most cases, patients feel good enough to eat anything they want right after the procedure.
  
   
• Following traditional surgery, recovery can take between to 2-4 weeks during which patients can experience considerable pain and swelling, where they may be restricted to liquid or soft diets.
  
  
• There's less than 24 hour recovery period, so you won't lose time from work.
  
  
• LASER PERIODONTAL THERAPY^TM is safe for patients with health concerns such as diabetes, HIV, hemophilia, or those taking medications such as Coumadin or Cyclosporin.
