Laser Technology

Here are some of the uses of Soft tissue lasers.

•Crown Lengthening: Dental lasers can reshape gum tissue to expose healthier tooth structure.

•Gummy Smile: Dental lasers can reshape gum tissue to expose healthy tooth structure and improve the appearance of a gummy smile.

•Muscle Attachment (Frenula): A laser frenectomy is an ideal treatment option for children who are tongue tied (restricted or tight frenulum) and babies unable to breast feed adequately due to limited tongue movement.

•Soft Tissue Folds (Epulis): Dental lasers may be used for the painless and suture-free removal of soft tissue folds often caused by ill-fitting dentures.

•Benign Tumors: Dental lasers may be used for the painless and suture-free removal of benign tumors from the gums, palate, sides of cheeks and lips.

•Cold Sores and Canker sores: Low intensity dental lasers reduce pain associated with cold sores and minimize healing time.

Benefits:

•Procedures performed using soft tissue dental lasers may not require sutures or anesthesia.

•Laser dentistry minimizes bleeding and bacterial infections.

•Damage to surrounding tissue is minimized, therefore wounds heal faster and tissues can be regenerated.
