Laser Dentistry

We are so happy to offer laser dentistry! We can restore a tooth and prepare it for a filling with no drill and no shots! This makes for a much less traumatic experience for most children. So much more comfortable for our patients and there is no pesky time waiting to feel your face again! The numb feeling can be very bothersome to a lot of children. Kids think the laser is cool!

Advantages of the dental laser include:

• often no drill or needle for fillings
• increased bond strength for fillings
• reduced post op sensitivity with fillings
• thorough disinfection of tooth prior to filling placement
• drug free treatment of cold sores

When a frenectomy or frenotomy is needed do to tongue tie or infants that can't latch on to nurse the laser is fantastic! There is no need for a scalpel or stitches! It just feels a little scratchy during the procedure. No pain!
