Wholeheartedly Recommend Them.

The staff has a culture of patient care and satisfaction. Most impressive was the work done by the dentist. He has a calming disposition, and I enjoyed the extra time he spent with me to explain what was going to happen, what to expect, and follow up/next steps. I would wholeheartedly recommend them for any services that they provide.

  • Is Laser Therapy safe?

    Yes, Laser Therapy is safe.

    Unlike other periodontal surgeries, the Laser Therapy laser gently kills bacteria and vaporizes diseased tissue. After tartar and plaque are removed from the tooth, the laser goes back in to create a seal and help your body naturally regenerate bone and gum tissue. No healthy tissue is harmed!

  • Does Laser Therapy hurt?

    No, Laser Therapy laser therapy doesn’t hurt.

    The primary cause of pain associated with periodontal surgery is scalpels and sutures, which are not used in this treatment.

    We also numb your gum tissue during the procedure to prevent potential discomfort.

    Afterward, you’ll experience less pain, swelling, sensitivity, and bleeding than traditional periodontal surgery. Healing is also quicker and more comfortable.

    In some cases, your gums may feel a little tender a few days following treatment. If it ever becomes uncomfortable, over-the-counter medication will help.

    Still worried about pain?

    Ask us about sedation dentistry, which helps you feel calm and relaxed throughout your appointment.

  • How long does Laser Therapy surgery take?

    Laser Therapy usually consists of two 90-minute appointments. We’ll complete one side of your mouth per visit.

  • How much does Laser Therapy cost?

    The cost of Laser Therapy is comparable to traditional periodontal surgery and varies depending on your case.

    Since recovery is minimal and you don’t need to take extensive time off work, it may be more financially reasonable.

    Book a consultation to find out how much Laser Therapy will cost you.

  • Will Laser Therapy save my teeth?

    Laser Therapy can save teeth that have become loose due to gum disease by regenerating bone and tissue that was previously lost.

    This helps you avoid tooth extractions and consequent procedures to replace the missing teeth, such as dental implants.

    However, the key to saving your teeth with Laser Therapy is to get treated sooner than later.
