It's about time! Smile in the City is thrilled to hear the good news: according to The Medical News, The Waterlase MD laser system has recently been approved by the FDA for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis, a condition referring to various diseases that occur when the support system of tissue and bone surrounding the teeth becomes inflamed.
