This newest equipment provides a state of the art set of tools for treating a variety of dental issues.</p>
<p>Laser tools are less invasive than traditional dental tools. They don’t make the same loud sounds. They don’t vibrate. As a result, laser technology reduces the need for anesthesia and is perfect for patients who have anxiety about dental procedures, including pediatric patients.</p>
<p>Some of the best uses of laser technology in a dental practice include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Microsurgery on very small cavities and small fissures in the enamel.</li>
<li>Root Exposure</li>
<li>Desensitization of sensitive teeth</li>
<li>Implants (laser encourages bone growth factors)</li>
<li>Very effective, sterile and gentle in working with implanted bone.</li>
<li>Cleaning of root canals.</li>
<li>Endodontic treatment.</li>
<li>Gum treatment including debridement of swollen and infected gum tissue.</li>
<li>Removal of plaque and tartar</li>
<li>Crown lengthening</li>
<li>Cosmetic dentistry including depigmentation of teeth, and debonding of porcelain veneers.</li>
<li>Pediatric treatments like exposure of unerupted teeth.</li>
<li>Frenectomy (This is a procedure to alter the frenulum which connects the upper lip to the middle of the teeth. Sometimes the frenulum causes a big space between the teeth.)</li>
<li>Pulpotomy (the removal of the diseased interior of a tooth)</li>
<li>Treatment of canker sores of all varieties</li>
</ul>
<p>We are excited to have this latest technology and to pass its benefits on to you.</p>
