Gum Contouring

Laser dentistry has a number of applications, all available to Friendswood and Pearland dentist patients.
Some patients may be embarrassed by their gummy smile. A gummy smile is characterized by prominent gums that make your teeth appear short and stubby. Fortunately, gummy smiles can be corrected with laser dentistry.

Gum contouring can eliminate your gummy smile. In the past, dentists used scalpels for gum contouring procedures. While scalpels and drills are effective, they can make patients feel nervous and uncomfortable. Gum contouring with a dental laser is the perfect solution for many patients. Laser dentistry often reduces bleeding, the risk of infection, and patient anxiety.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

Dental lasers have helped improve the lives of many patients. They are typically considered painless so local anesthesia is usually not required. Patients report less recovery time after undergoing dental laser therapy. Many patients also claim that laser treatments are far more tolerable than dental drills. Dental lasers are less painful because they vaporize infected tissue rather than cut into it. Dental lasers also help provide better, more accurate treatments during procedures. This ensures that there’s less potential for bacterial infection after your procedure.

Laser dentistry is often used to treat gum disease and to complete root canal therapy. Dental lasers can also aid in detecting small cavities or warning signs of oral cancer. Experience dental lasers for yourself at our Friendswood dentistry practice!
