Laser Dentistry

The Power of Lasers in Dentistry 

The term “laser” originated as an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. In simple terms, a laser is a highly focused form of light energy. Lasers allow for greater precision, less discomfort, and faster healing, which is why they are an essential tool for many of the procedures I do. 

Types utilized in my office: CO2, Erbium-Yag, and Diode  

With these lasers, I can: 

  • Perform fillings without requiring shots

  • Minimize need for root canals 

 
  • Perform gingival and tongue-tie release surgery without using a scalpel

  • Reduce TMJ pain
