At Lawson Dentistry, we use advanced laser technology to enhance our dental care services. Laser dentistry represents a significant advancement, allowing us to perform precise, minimally invasive treatments that improve patient comfort and outcomes. This innovative approach aligns with our commitment to holistic and comprehensive dental care, ensuring our patients receive the most effective treatments.

Conditions Treated with Laser Dentistry

Laser treatments at Lawson Dentistry are versatile, effectively addressing various conditions:

  • Canker Sores: help alleviate discomfort and accelerates healing.
  • Gum Disease: Our lasers remove diseased gum tissue and bacteria, promoting healthier gums and preventing further periodontal issues.
  • Lesions in the Mouth: Lasers precisely target and treat oral lesions, ensuring minimal discomfort and swift recovery.
  • Soft Tissue Procedures: From cosmetic gum contouring to frenectomies, laser technology provides efficient and safe solutions for soft tissue modifications.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry offers numerous advantages over traditional methods, including:

  • No Need for Sutures: Laser procedures are so precise that they eliminate the need for sutures.
  • Faster Healing Times: Patients experience quicker recovery, reducing downtime and discomfort.
  • Precision and Accuracy: Lasers provide exceptional accuracy, targeting only the affected areas without harming surrounding tissues.
  • Reduced Bleeding and Lower Risk of Infection: Laser treatments minimize bleeding and significantly reduce the risk of infection, ensuring a safer procedure and recovery.

Comparison with Traditional Methods

Laser dentistry offers a less invasive and more comfortable experience than traditional dental procedures. Traditional methods often require sutures and involve more bleeding, while laser treatments are precise, cause minimal discomfort, and promote faster healing. The use of dental lasers ensures a higher level of accuracy, making it an excellent choice for various dental procedures, including gum disease treatment and soft tissue surgeries.
