Waterlase Dentistry:A number of procedures can be performed

  • All classes of dental fillings. It's only limitation is that it can not remove old silver amalgam.
  • Laser assisted periodontal therapy
  • Smile improvements, i.e. gum sculpting that lengthens teeth due to oversized gingiva ("gummy smile" improvement)
  • Gingivectomy, gingivoplasty, crown lengthening, and other gum corrections
  • Root canals and apicoectomies
  • Removal of oral lesions such as fibromas or pappilomas, usually with topical anesthesia only
  • Excisional and incisional biopsies
  • Frenectomy ("tongue-tie" release, orthodontic or periodontal indications) without anesthesia or sutures
  • Pediatric procedures. The lack of needles or drills is a huge plus for kids.
  • Cold sore treatments
  • Apthous Ulcer ("canker sore" ) treatments
  • Treatment of minor mouth and gum irritations
