What are the Benefits of Laser Dentistry?

- Shorter post-treatment recovery times compared to traditional dental procedures
- Ultra-precise treatments, reducing risk of bacterial infection
Laser dental procedures offered at Smile Team Pediatric Dentistry include:
Laser Gingivectomy
Gentle laser gingivectomies are offered to help patients facing gum disease. Dr. Warcup may recommends this surgical treatment for severe gum disease, typically when antibiotics or other periodontal therapies do not produce the desired treatment results. Laser gingivectomies can remove and shape gum tissue to reduce deep pockets that can harbor gum disease. Gingivectomies also offer the added benefit of making brushing and flossing at home easier for our pediatric patients!
Cold Sore Treatment
Does your child or teen suffer from canker sores or cold sores? Dr. Warcup can offer laser cold sore treatment, using our technology to heat the sore, kill the virus, and stimulate quick, effective healing. At Smile Team Pediatric Dentistry, laser cold sore treatment is a short, minimally invasive procedure lasting just only about 15 minutes!
