laser dentistry

Lasers are an effective alternative to the conventional scalpel for common dental procedures, including gingivectomy and frenectomy.

 

Laser Gingivectomy

By comfortably and gently re-contouring the gum line with a laser, we can often resolve uneven, overgrown, and excessive display of gums (gummy smiles).

Laser Frenectomy

We can often reduce gum recession and central tooth gap that is caused by a short labial frenum by performing a laser frenectomy.

Other Laser Procedures

In addition to laser decontamination, we also use soft-tissue lasers to treat gum or periodontal disease, cold sores, and tongue-tie (ankyloglossia).
