Laser Periodontitis Treatment in the Financial District (94104)
Advanced Non-Surgical Gum Disease Relief Across Downtown San Francisco
If you are managing gum disease (periodontitis, ICD-10: K05.3), laser-assisted periodontal therapy serves as a powerful, non-surgical intervention that complements traditional care. At Digital Dental Practice in the heart of the Financial District, Dr. Maryam Tabar utilizes advanced soft-tissue lasers to precisely remove infected pocket lining, eliminate bacteria, and stimulate natural healing without cutting, scalpels, or sutures. This modern technique significantly reduces periodontal pocket depths and helps prevent tooth loss caused by advanced gum disease.
Benefits of Laser Gum Treatment
- Minimally Invasive: No scalpels, surgical cutting, or sutures are required, ensuring a significantly more comfortable procedure.
- Reduced Pain & Sensitivity: Most patients experience little to no post-treatment discomfort compared to conventional gum surgery.
- Faster Healing: Laser energy encourages rapid tissue regeneration and drastically minimizes localized swelling.
- Targeted Bacterial Decontamination: Effectively sterilizes deep periodontal pockets to eradicate harmful pathogens at their source.
- Preservation of Healthy Tissue: Selectively removes only diseased tissue while protecting your healthy gum architecture.
You May Benefit from Laser Treatment If You Have:
- Persistent gum bleeding, swelling, tenderness, or noticeable recession.
- Chronic bad breath (halitosis) or an unpleasant taste caused by bacterial accumulation.
- Deep periodontal pockets identified during professional dental examinations.
- Tooth sensitivity resulting from exposed root surfaces and gum recession.

Medical Condition
Chronic Periodontitis
Periodontal disease (ICD-10 K05.3) is a chronic inflammatory pathology resulting from bacterial dysbiosis, leading to the progressive destruction of the supporting periodontium and gingival attachment. Left untreated, this inflammatory state compromises systemic health and clinical occlusal stability. We utilize advanced, site-specific laser bacterial reduction to neutralize pathogens and arrest tissue degradation, facilitating a controlled environment for the regeneration and long-term stabilization of the periodontal ecosystem.
Medical Procedure
Laser-Assisted Periodontal Therapy (LAPT)
A precision-guided clinical intervention using therapeutic laser technology to perform site-specific bacterial decontamination within periodontal pockets. This minimally invasive procedure selectively targets and eliminates pathogenic bacteria and compromised gingival tissue, effectively arresting the inflammatory cycle. By promoting a sterile healing environment, this therapy facilitates the reattachment of healthy periodontal tissue and supports long-term structural stability of the oral ecosystem.
Medical Device
Soft Tissue Dental Laser
Precision-engineered therapeutic laser instrumentation utilized for site-specific gingival debridement and biological stimulation. This advanced, non-ablative technology enables the precise elimination of pathogens and diseased tissue without the structural trauma associated with traditional scalpels or sutures. By facilitating a controlled, sterile healing environment, this device is integral to our biomimetic approach to periodontal health, promoting rapid tissue regeneration and long-term gingival stability.

Dr.Tabar is the best dentist I have had in my life - and that’s saying a lot since I have moved a lot and had many dentists. I trust her advice completely and know that she always puts my needs first and gives me an honest assessment of what is happening. Under her careful care and guidance, we were able to improve my gum disease even through a pregnancy and breastfeeding. She was also quick to identify and resolve dental issues I had while taking care of a newborn, managing the issue quickly and at lowest cost. I ask a million questions and at every interaction she is always deeply patient and communicative. I am a bit bummed to leave her since we are moving. But I would highly recommend her practice to anyone looking for an excellent dentist who always does the right thing and is highly knowledgeable, personable, and communicative.Posted on Patient Connect365![]()

I literally have a phobia of dentists and was very nervous when I moved to SF and left my old dentist behind. I cannot believe my luck that I found Dr Tabar, she is amazing! I still have the phobia but I can manage to go and see her four times a year (for 4 years) and totally trust her. She took the time to understand how I feel and was genuine in her interaction with me. My teeth are 100% better since I have been going to her and she has managed to get me on a very strict hygiene ritual - nobody has managed that before! I don't feel she does things for money but rather what is best for you. Her office is lovely and her staff great. I cannot recommend her highly enough.Posted on Patient Connect365![]()

I loved my childhood dentist. I went to him for 15+ years and within that time he managed to stay up-to-date with all the dental technology. I was sad to leave him and his wonderful practice when I moved to San Francisco. My first new dentist in SF was William R Smith (http://www.yelp.com/biz/william-r-smith-dds-cow-hollow-dental-center-san-francisco). He works with his daughter, Dr. Connelly. Both were very pleasant people, but I'm sad to say their practice is completely out-dated, which I found surprising given his daughter RECENTLY GRADUATED from UoP. I walked away from my bi-annual dental exam with a quick brush and floss, 20 minutes max-no gum measuring, fluoride treatment, anything else. Why else do we have dental insurance? I was worried that maybe all other dentists were actually like this, and it was only my childhood dentist who went above and beyond. I decided to give Dr. Tabar a chance because something just did not feel right about leaving my dental care in the hands of Dr. Smith and I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER! I filled out all of my "paperwork" completely on the computer with the guidance of her wonderful receptionist. I then took x-rays with her dental hygienist, who was just as sweet, all while watching Netflix on a screen in front of me. Dr. Tabar's exam was as thorough/gentle/amazing as it could be. Her technology even allowed her to take pictures and pull them up on the screen in front of me. She took the time to explain everything in detail, even a minor scrape on the roof of my mouth. Her wonderful collaboration with her hygienist made me feel confident I was putting my dental care in the right hands. In addition, Dr. Tabar's office almost feels like a spa with the updated decor, air-massage chairs and scented spa-towelette they give you after your visit to wipe off your face. NOT ONE THING will disappoint you about choosing Dr. Tabar as your dentist. I went there expecting only detailed cleaning, but was seriously blown-away by the exemplary service I received. She should run a side-business on teaching other dentists how to run their offices.Posted on Patient Connect365![]()

Just finished a visit with a fantastic new dentist in downtown San Fra ncisco - Dr. Maryam Tabar. First of all let me say it's really nice that someone finally gets it - for those of us who have to work during the week she's open at no extra charge for appointments on Saturday. She is the only dentist working in the office and along with her assistant is doing all of the work - from the cleaning to the fillings. She says that because of this she has a chance to know the conditions and needs of her patients teeth. Second the office itself is brand new with all modern equipment: computerized records and forms, new special drills and cleaning stuff, the chairs even give you a massage. Overall the office has a modern professional feeling and is decorated in a soothing colors that are subtly calming. I put going to the dentist on the list of fun things to do just under ... well, let's just say I don't like it. With they're sharp metallic instruments and screaming drills it usually feels like you've signed up to be the demonstration dummy for a class on S&M. In contrast, Dr. Tabar was very gently. She used a sonic scraper (I think that's what it's called) instead of the metal scraping and it was sooo much better. She is also extremely through - carefully checking for everything from cavities and gum disease to oral cancer. I'm never going to like going to the dentist but I have at last found one I feel comfortable seeing.
