One of the advanced technologies our doctors may use when providing your care is a soft tissue laser. Lasers allow us to provide treatments with greater accuracy, offering a more effective treatment and minimizing your recovery time so that you can continue to enjoy a healthy mouth and smile.
When Are Soft Tissue Lasers Used?
Soft tissue lasers are highly versatile, and may be used in a wide range of treatments, such as:
- Treatment of some types of gum disease
- Crown lengthening
- Frenectomy (tongue- and lip-tie treatments)
- Treatments for cold sores and canker sores
- Uncovering impacted teeth
- Removing damaged gum tissue
- Recontouring the gumline
- And more!
Benefits of Soft Tissue Lasers
Laser dentistry offers many benefits, including:
- Increased control during your procedure, resulting in accurate and effective treatment
- Faster treatment time
- Reduced bleeding during and after your procedure
- Reduced risk of infection following treatment
- Minimally invasive – lasers can target the treatment area without causing damage to nearby tissue
- Enhanced comfort – anesthesia might not always be needed
- A quieter treatment, emitting only a soft humming sound rather than the loud noises of traditional treatment techniques
