Laser Decontamination & Laser Bacterial reduction (LBR)

At RENU Prosthodontics, we are committed to providing the most advanced and gentle methods for maintaining healthy gums and a strong foundation for your smile. One of the latest innovations in periodontal care is laser bacterial reduction (LBR)—a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to eliminate harmful bacteria and promote healing.

What Is Laser Bacterial Reduction?

Laser bacterial reduction (also called laser decontamination) uses a specialized diode laser to target and destroy bacteria and other microorganisms that cause inflammation, gum infection, and periodontal disease. The laser light gently passes along the gumline—much like a small flashlight—disinfecting the area without damaging healthy tissue. This process is quick, painless, and requires no anesthetic or special home care afterward.

Benefits of LBR

• Reduces bacteria and inflammation that contribute to gingivitis and periodontitis

• Stimulates healing and tissue regeneration, helping gums recover from infection

• Enhances overall gum health and supports long-term stability of teeth and restorations

• Prevents disease progression, potentially avoiding the need for more invasive periodontal treatments
