Whether you have embarrassing cold sores or a gummy smile, then you could benefit from dental lasers. This advanced technology offers care without the use of scalpels and sutures. In today’s blog, your Sheridan, WY, dentist discusses how we offer treatment for a variety of concerns with safe and gentle dental lasers.
The Benefits of Laser Dentistry
Dental lasers can offer a number of benefits for smiles. Using a concentrated beam of light that is specially calibrated to address dental concerns, we can provide a comfortable treatment that rarely requires the use of anesthesia, and only takes one visit to complete. The lasers treat areas with precision and prevent damage to healthy surrounding tissues. No need for sutures or clasps, and the area will heal much quicker too. In fact, the risk of bleeding, swelling, and infection is much lower, and many people return to their normal routines after a day of rest. From general and restorative concerns to cosmetic issues, they can offer a number of options for improving smiles.
Treating Cold Sores and Gummy Smiles
Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus, and will heal on their own. Hoover, whether healing on their own or with special medications, this can mean days of unsightly sores being visible. But with laser dentistry, we can shrink them so they heal much faster, and the chances of another sore occurring in the same area is much lower. We can also treat canker sores too. If you have a gummy smile, which displays too much tissue when you smile, our team could help by trimming away the excess tissues and reshaping the gum line to improve symmetry, so you avoid showing off too much tissue, or issues with the appearance of your teeth.
Periodontal Dental Care
For people with a more advanced case of gum disease, we could use the technology to remove diseased tissues so healthy ones can adhere to the teeth, correcting recession and the risk of tooth loss. Treatment helps you maintain an attractive smile and helps you enjoy better oral health too. If you have any questions about the benefits of using dental technology to treat an array of oral health concerns, then contact our team today to learn more. We would love to help you start a new season with a new and healthy smile. Everything starts with a simple checkup and cleaning visit, so schedule one today to start your journey to your best smile!
