Laser technology adds a new level of precision and comfort to your dental procedures. From hygiene visits to soft tissue treatment, you'll experience noticeable improvements in both comfort and healing. Our use of lasers means:

  • Minimal Discomfort - Laser-assisted cleanings are gentler than traditional methods, often eliminating the need for scraping.
  • Enhanced Hygiene Results - Lasers can reach and eliminate bacteria below the gumline more effectively.
  • Reduced Bleeding and Swelling - The laser's targeted energy seals tissue as it works, reducing discomfort to your mouth.
  • Faster Healing Times - With less tissue disruption, your body can recover more quickly after dental procedures.

Overall, you'll experience a calmer, less stressful visit thanks to the quiet, comfortable nature of laser procedures.

How We Use Laser Dentistry in Our Office

We've integrated laser technology into multiple areas of care. This technology enhances comfort, precision, and healing. It plays a key role in:

  • Laser-Assisted Hygiene - We use soft tissue lasers during cleanings to reduce bacteria, especially along the gumline. It ensures a more thorough and gentle experience.
  • Inflammation Reduction - The laser helps calm inflamed gums during hygiene visits, improving comfort and reducing the need for invasive treatment.
  • Cold Sore Treatment - We use laser therapy to treat cold sores, ease discomfort, and quicken the healing process. We can often stop outbreaks in their early stages.
  • Ongoing Preventive Care - Regular use of lasers during cleanings supports long-term gum health and makes routine visits more comfortable.

Not a huge fan of going to the dentist, so I appreciate when the staff makes sure it is a quick and easy visit. The hygienist was efficient in her work as well as stern with her feedback on my dental habits, which is oddly refreshing.

I like that you consistently work with the same people that get to know you, which hadn’t always been my experience in other places. The staff is friendly, my visits are quick but not in a way that feel rushed, and they do a great job.

Commonly Asked Questions About Laser Dentistry

Is laser dentistry safe for routine cleanings?

Yes, laser dentistry is a safe addition to routine dental cleanings. It allows our team to target and reduce bacteria beneath the gumline with greater precision and comfort. Laser cleanings are especially helpful for those with sensitive gums, early signs of gum disease, or anxiety about dental equipment. When used by trained professionals, like Dr. Despain, dental lasers offer a reliable, low-risk way to enhance your hygiene care.

What types of procedures can be done with a dental laser?

At our office, we use laser technology for several soft tissue treatments. This includes laser-assisted hygiene cleanings, cold sore treatment, and more. In each case, the laser allows us to perform procedures more comfortably and with greater precision. While hygiene is our primary focus, these other treatments benefit from the same gentle approach.

Does laser treatment hurt?

You'll find laser dental treatments to be very comfortable. Unlike traditional technology, lasers don't cause vibration or scraping sensations. In many cases, there's no need for numbing because the procedure is so gentle. You may feel a slight warmth or tingling sensation, but discomfort is minimal. For soft-tissue procedures such as cold sore treatment, the laser delivers relief quickly and without pain. It's a great option if you prefer a more relaxed dental experience.
