Laser Dentistry

The addition of lasers to the dental field has enabled dentists to perform many procedures that have been around for a long time with several added benefits for the patient.

Our Team with the use of a laser, can:

• perform gum surgery without the gums bleeding, and no need to stitch them up!
• disinfect a decayed tooth in need of a root canal.
• alleviate pain and swelling from cold and canker sores.
• perform some cosmetic gum surgeries.
• accelerate teeth whitening.

Other laser procedures our team can perform include:

• gingival troughing for crown impressions
• gingivectomy
• gingivoplasty
• gingival incision and excision
• hemostasis and coagulation
• excisional and incisional biopsies
• expose unerupted teeth
• fibroma removal
• frenectomy and frenotomy
• implant recovery
• incision and drainage of abscess
• leukoplakia
• operculectomy
• oral papillectomies
• pulpotomy
• pulpotomy with root canal therapy
• reduction of gingival hypertrophy

The advent of lasers has significantly improved the success rate in treating periodontal (gum) disease.

Laser periodontal procedures include:

• sulcular debridement (removal of diseased soft tissue)
• laser soft tissue curettage
