We utilize laser dentistry for its optimal precision in treating patients all while providing them comfort. Our dental experts have found that laser dentistry along with our other dental technologies have been heavily reliable in treating many patient’s teeth in the past and have granted virtually painless experiences.

The lasers in our practice send energy through the form of light for precise treatment execution. Through this beam of light, the laser can remove or reshape designated tissue along with numerous other purposes. Consult with our staff to learn more about laser dentistry and if it may be the right treatment option for you!

• For an examination for cancer, lasers can help remove tiny pieces of tissue for biopsies
• Laser dentistry can remove decay from teeth and prepare the enamel for fillings
• After an application of a peroxide bleaching formula, lasers can help whiten teeth for a brighter smile
• Lasers can help remove a great amount of bacteria and modify the shape of gums to treat gum disease

One of the biggest pros of laser dentistry is that there is no use of traditional drills. Compared to drills, laser dentistry reduces the need for using anesthesia, minimizes bleeding and swelling caused from drilling, and can protect healthy teeth during a cavity extraction. Choosing laser dentistry also helps reduce anxiety in patients who are discomforted with the idea of dental drilling.

During your consultation, we will discuss with you your maintenance plan to garner the best possible results. For periodontal care, we’ve had great success with performing soft tissue laser therapy combined with localized prescriptions that can help alleviate symptoms at the treatment site.

Each patient’s maintenance plan will be created to best treat their individual periodontal needs. Depending on each patient’s periodontal health will determine the best course of action to take to enhance their dental well-being. Treatment plans can span over an interval of 2 or more months based on the severity of their condition. We may also advise you to use several different brushes, fluoride rinses, and vitamins to help strengthen your oral health.
