Our Personalized Laser Therapies
Frenectomy
Frenectomy treatments traditionally needed us to use a scalpel to loosen the frenulum, the tissue that connects the upper lip and the tongue to the mouth. With our diode laser, we can instead eradicate this tissue in just a few minutes and cauterize the area so it doesn’t bleed.

Soft tissue recontouring
In the past, “gummy” smile treatment involved cutting away the excess gum tissue with a scalpel. Now, using our diode laser, we gently remove this gum tissue from around the teeth, reshaping with great precision for an overall more attractive smile.
2
Gingivectomy
A gingivectomy normally needs a scalpel to remove the diseased gum tissue from around the teeth. This process risked removing healthy gum tissue as well. With our diode laser, we can eradicate the damaged tissue, without harming the healthy tissues, and vaporize the bacteria on and around the teeth to effectively treat gum disease.
3
Peri-Implantitis
Peri-implantitis (like gum disease) is an infection caused by bacteria that damages the gums and bone around a dental implant. Without treatment, a dental implant can become loose and fail, eventually needing to be removed. Using our diode laser, we can eliminate this damaged gum tissue and vaporize the bacteria around the dental implant post, without needing to use scalpels or incisions, thus saving your dental implant.
