Advanced Techniques Using Laser Dentistry

Dr. Alexander utilizes soft tissue lasers for a variety of services including root canals. Here are some featured services using our soft tissue laser:

  • Cosmetic Gum Lift

    The laser can be used to correct uneven gum lines with faster healing and less discomfort for a more even smile. To view the results of a cosmetic gum lift, view our before and after photos under our aesthetic smile makeover section.

  • Laser Periodontal Therapy

    Laser periodontal therapy provides a less expensive and more convenient alternative to periodontal (gum) surgery. When combined with PerioProtect, this procedure provides the best chance for avoiding periodontal surgery.

  • Canker Sore and Cold Sore Treatment

    The laser can be used to treat canker sores and cold sores. The laser sterilizes the area, speeding healing and lessening discomfort.

  • Excess Soft Tissue Removal

    Certain conditions and medications may cause an overgrowth of gum tissue leading to unattractive gums and even gum diseases. With our soft tissue laser, we can correct this without traditional cutting and speed healing time.
