With the advanced BIOLASE Waterlase® technology, we offer a less painful and more precise alternative to traditional treatments, improving patient care at our dental office.

What is Laser Dentistry?

Laser dentistry is a technique that harnesses the power of lasers to address oral conditions. This groundbreaking technology has earned widespread acclaim among dentists and patients alike, as it can treat soft tissue effectively while causing less discomfort.

Traditional dental tools, such as the dreaded drill or scalpel, can generate vibrations, heat, and discomfort during procedures. On the other hand, dental lasers emit a powerful, yet extremely precise, beam of light that can be tailored to target specific areas within the oral cavity.

Which Issues Can Laser Dentistry Correct?

Professionals can use dental lasers for the following dental treatments:

• Gum Disease Treatment: Southern laser dentistry removes infected gum tissue and promotes healthy gum regeneration.
• Cavity Preparation: Lasers can be used to remove decayed tissue, making cavity treatment quicker and less painful.
• Root Canal Therapy: Laser-assisted root canal therapy is less invasive and reduces the risk of complications.
• Gum Reshaping: For cosmetic purposes, lasers can reshape gum tissue to improve give you a beautiful smile.
• Oral Lesion Removal: Suspicious oral lesions can be removed and biopsied using laser technology.
• Teeth Whitening: Laser-assisted teeth whitening can achieve remarkable results in a shorter time compared to traditional methods.

How Long Does It Take to Recover from Laser Dental Procedures?

One of the fantastic things about laser dental procedures is the speedy recovery. Since lasers are so precise and cause minimal trauma to the surrounding tissue, you'll find that your recovery time is often shorter compared to traditional methods.

In many cases, you can resume your daily activities almost immediately after this dental treatment. Any discomfort or swelling that may occur is usually mild and temporary and will fade away within a few days at most. You can get back to enjoying your favorite foods and flashing your beautiful smile without much downtime!

However, if you notice persistent pain, excessive bleeding, or swelling, please book an emergency appointment at Pelham Links Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. Our experts will take a look and provide prompt treatment.

What is BIOLASE Waterlase®?

BIOLASE Waterlase® is a revolutionary dental laser technology that combines the power of laser energy with the gentleness of water spray.
