What is laser dentistry?
Dental laser treatment involves the use of a focused light over more invasive dental tools, such as drills and scalpels. However, not all lasers are created equally, and different lasers are used for various laser dental procedures. For instance, the light used for dental fillings differs from one that is used for gum contouring or laser periodontal therapy. Though they differ in purpose, they share one defining similarity: precise, gentle dental care.
What types of dental laser treatments do you offer?
Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry
Soft tissue laser dentistry involves the use of lasers on soft tissues, such as gum tissue and oral mucosa. This is particularly useful when removing excess soft tissue or performing minimally invasive oral biopsies.
Hard Tissue Laser Dentistry
Hard tissue laser therapy refers to dental laser treatment performed on harder surfaces, such as tooth enamel. Procedures like laser cavity removal and laser fillings have become increasingly more popular due to their gentle nature.
Laser Periodontal Therapy
Gum disease has been successfully treated with laser periodontal therapy for over three decades. This minimally invasive approach not only yields exceptional results, but also maximizes patient comfort.
Laser Gum Contouring
Gummy smiles or uneven gumlines can do a number on your confidence. With minimally invasive laser gum contouring, you can achieve instant results with nearly zero discomfort.
Laser gum therapy & treatments
Gum disease is one of the most common dental conditions in the US. Fortunately, treating gum disease just got easier with laser gum therapy. Improve your overall oral health by treating and preventing gum disease with gentle laser gum treatment.
Benefits of laser dentistry:
Laser dentistry has gained popularity due to its gentle, effective nature. In addition to being gentle and highly effective, laser dental treatment also results in reduced swelling, faster healing, and an improved dental experience overall.
