Laser Therapy

The laser technology used in our office combines unique fiber management systems and the newest innovations to create the most sophisticated, precise and minimally invasive technology available.

Soft-tissue laser therapy carries many advantages for patients with gum disease. The intense heat of the laser cauterizes the infected area as it destroys bacteria and damaged tissue. The treatment is effective and non-invasive. A laser is an instrument that produces a very narrow, intense beam of light energy. When laser light comes in contact with tissue, it causes a reaction. The light produced by the laser can remove or shape tissue.

Benefits of Laser Therapy:

• reduce the discomfort of canker sores and fever blisters
• manage gum tissue during impressions for crowns or other procedures.
• remove overgrown tissues caused by certain medications.
• perform biopsy procedures
• remove inflamed gum tissues and aid in the treatment of gum disease.
• remove or reshape gum and bone tissues during crown lengthening procedures.
