Saving Lives by Saving Smiles

Keep Your Teeth and Implants for Life With Laser Treatment That Works

At McCawley Center for Laser Periodontics & Implants in Fort Lauderdale, we use laser therapy, antimicrobial therapy, and personalized treatments to help you avoid surgery, save your natural teeth, and preserve your dental implants.

You Don’t Have to Lose Your Teeth or Implants

Bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, or failing implants are often signs of serious infection. Left untreated, these problems can lead to extractions or implant failure.

At the McCawley Center for Laser Periodontics & Implants, we help patients keep their smiles intact. We treat the infection at its source using minimally invasive laser therapy that saves both natural teeth and implants, even when others say they can’t be saved.

We welcome second opinions and are proud to offer alternatives when surgery or removal seems like the only option.

Why Patients Trust Us

LANAP® and LAPIP®: Gentle Laser Treatment That Preserves Your Smile

LANAP treats gum disease around natural teeth. LAPIP does the same for dental implants. Both are FDA-cleared laser therapies that remove bacteria and promote healing without cutting or sutures.

Patients experience less pain, shorter recovery, and excellent long-term results. Many who were told they needed surgery or implant removal have been able to preserve their teeth and implants with our care.

Bad Breath Treatment

Bad breath is often caused by bacteria that live deep in the tongue and throat, releasing gases that produce strong odors. These bacteria can’t be removed with brushing or rinsing alone.

We use advanced diagnostics and patented instruments to treat the source directly, including tongue disinfection and targeted antimicrobials.

This is not a temporary fix. Our goal is to resolve the root problem so you can breathe and speak with confidence again.

Pinhole Surgical Technique

Receding gums can leave teeth sensitive and visually longer. The Pinhole Surgical Technique is a minimally invasive option that allows us to reposition gum tissue without scalpels or sutures. This gentle approach helps restore a natural, healthy gum line with minimal discomfort and fast recovery.

Full Arch and Dental Implant Surgery

In addition to treating gum disease and infections, we also provide expert dental implant placement, including full arch dental implants for patients with extensive tooth loss.

Our advanced diagnostics and laser-assisted surgical approach help ensure long-term success and faster healing.
