Soft-Tissue Laser

The benefits of using lasers in dentistry
A number of different kinds of lasers are used in dentistry, and they are particularly useful for treating the gums and soft tissue problems. The benefits of laser treatment include:
• Faster healing
• Less bleeding
• Reduced swelling

How we use lasers
Before using the laser, we provide you with special protective glasses, and then we may numb the area we'll work on. We then sweep the gentle beam over the affected area. The narrow beam removes only a specific number of cell layers on each pass, so we have precise control over the procedure. Lasers can be used in a wide range of procedures, including:

• Aesthetic gum recontouring

• Lesion removal

• Treatment of gum disease

• Removal of excess gum tissue

• Gum surgery Dental lasers are an effective new technology that allows us to work faster and exercise more precise control over procedures. The result is faster healing and less pain for you.
