This is genuinely excellent healing that initially seems too good to be true!

Reducing oral bacteria with bacterial laser reduction has multiple advantages for oral health. Many studies show a direct correlation between gum disease and other systemic diseases, such as diabetes (insulin resistance), respiratory tract infections (bacterial pneumonia), cardiovascular disease, stroke, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and cancer. Common anaerobic oral bacteria can spread via the bloodstream to other body areas. Laser Bacterial Reduction (LBR) is next-level care that helps remove bacteria from the gum tissue, reduces bleeding and inflammation, and enables you to heal quicker! It can also help reduce bad breath! The mouth is the doorway to a healthy body and immune system.

Laser bacterial reduction (LBR) eliminates harmful bacteria in your mouth in just five minutes! Lasers can reduce the number of bacteria from millions to hundreds! The Biolase laser bacterial reduction procedure is easy, safe, painless, and comfortable. At first, the laser light passes through the healthy tissues. Then, it targets and destroys bacteria and toxins that cause inflammation and periodontal disease before they cause further destruction of gums and bone around your teeth. The process usually takes 5-10 minutes. There’s no age restriction. The laser also disinfects as it treats, with virtually no bleeding or swelling in surgical procedures due to its anti-inflammatory effect. Laser bacterial reduction has never been more straightforward!

Benefits of Laser Bacterial Reduction Therapy:

  • Improved oral health
  • Stronger resistance to infection and gum disease
  • Immune system boost
  • Increased protection from other inflammation-based diseases throughout the body
  • Lower risk of cross-contamination between healthy and diseased teeth/gums

I drive over an hour from Cape Cod for all my dental work because Dr. Kovtun is one of the few Biological dentists around. Not only is he a master at dentistry but he offers a healthier holistic approach to oral health that is so important to me. Often times, conventional dentists overlook at the importance or how oral health effects the entire body. He and his staff are super nice and I'm glad I found them!! Read More

Have been a patient here for quite a while now. It was hard to find a dentist that I trusted in the area, but I've really enjoyed this practice. They tend to be conservative with their assessment, which I really value - no unnecessary treatments, and my teeth feel and look great. Read More

Dr. Kovtun is great. I chipped my 7-year molar, and he was able to fit me in the very next morning! He safely, quickly, and painlessly removed my old amalgam filling and prepped my tooth with a temporary fix while I wait for a beautiful new permanent one. He is knowledgeable, informative, and accomodating. The staff is super-competent and friendly. I will definitely be scheduling other dental procedures here. Excellent, excellent, excellent!!
