Laser Treatment

We use advanced lasers in our practice for soft tissue procedures, such as uncovering a tooth that is completely or partially covered by gum tissue or to remove excess tissue that surrounds the front teeth following orthodontic treatment. Lasers emit narrow beams of light energy to painlessly penetrate the gum tissue, producing the ability to precisely vaporize and shape specific amounts of soft tissues, without creating unwanted surgical effects. Lasers can control the amount of bleeding during the procedure and can sometimes remove or recontour gum tissue without bleeding. The laser treatment is noninvasive and is safely performed in the office using a strong topical anesthetic without any needles and with little to no patient discomfort.
