Modern methods and the most popular strategy for treating periodontal pockets surgically and repairing them with plastic surgery are described as periodontal flap surgery. One typical effect of periodontal (gum) disease is "pocketing," which is the end result of inflammation and infection that causes the loss of tissue attachment to the teeth.

Dental lasers of today are more specialized and aimed for treating particular conditions, such as periodontal (or gum) disease. Although flap surgery has long been used to treat periodontal disease, laser flap surgery is increasingly more popular due to its many benefits over traditional methods. The use of laser gum therapy has dramatically changed how dentists treat periodontal disease. Particularly periodontists have discovered that using lasers instead of scalpels to remove unhealthy tissue can make dental patients feel better at ease. This is partially because, unlike traditional surgery, which leaves an open wound, laser surgery leaves no incisions separating the gum tissue from the underlying bone, making it a minimally intrusive procedure.

Because it is safe and doesn't cause any localized or systemic health difficulties, this device is mostly intended for people with compromised medical conditions. Particularly for diabetic individuals, since the laser itself is less invasive and bactericidal. Because it is bactericidal and painless, individuals with renal failure can also benefit from it and do not require postoperative medication. beneficial for treating a variety of other systemic issues in youngsters and the elderly, such as diabetes, hypertension, and anxiety related to injections or sutures.

Because of its hemostatic and antibacterial properties, the diode laser is the preferred method for laser assisted flap surgery. Since Erbium is a hard and soft tissue laser, it is the preferred choice for bone recontouring instances.

It roughly ranges from Rs 30,000 to Rs 40,000 depending on the kind of lasers utilized and which parts of the mouth need to be operated on.
