State-of-the-Art Laser Dentistry

State-of-the-art Laser Dentistry provides unparalleled precision and in some cases the removal of decay and efficient cutting of tooth structure requiring no anesthetic or needles. The use of Lasers also allows precise sculpting of gum tissue and treatment of gum disease at an earlier stage with no anesthetic, less bleeding and swelling and a reduced chance of infection. In addition, it can be useful to pregnant women and people with debilitating medical conditions. While there is no guarantee of total "pain free laser dentistry", discomfort is greatly reduced.

Advantages of Laser Dentistry include:

• Minimal or no anesthesia
• Minimal bleeding
• Reduced postoperative infection/discomfort
• Less chance of infection
• Reduced time in dentist's office
• Less pain
• Quick removal of tooth decay
• Longer lasting fillings
• Faster healing
• Preservation of tooth structure
• A more sterilized environment (dental laser kills bacteria)
• For the treatment of canker sore and herpes lesions, the laser can actually decrease the pain experienced by these sores
