Laser Teeth Whitening
Laser teeth whitening, which is often called power whitening, is one of the most common ways to solve the problem of discolored teeth. Laser teeth whitening is a highly effective and safe way to whiten your teeth. It is non-invasive, quick and painless procedure. The results are almost immediate and long lasting.
Laser frenectomy – Tongue tie
Tongue-tie is a congenital oral anomaly that may decrease the mobility of the tongue tip and is caused by an unusually short, thick lingual frenulum, a membrane connecting the underside of the tongue to the floor of the mouth. There is difficulty in lifting the tongue to the upper teeth or moving the tongue from side to side.
Trouble sticking out the tongue past the lower front teeth is noticed. The tongue appears notched or heart shaped when stuck out. Ankyloglossia can affect eating, speech, and oral hygiene as well as have mechanical/social effects. Laser surgery for tongue-tie is similar to a frenectomy except that a laser is used instead of a scalpel or knife. Using a laser may help make tinier snips or cuts. This may help the area bleed less and have faster healing time.

Laser depigmentation
When gums have excess amount of melanin, it leads to gingival hyperpigmentation. Gum depigmentation is a procedure that is done to correct the excess melanin in gums. Laser depigmentation procedure is done by removing superficial layers of gums. After the procedure, new cells with pink color appear changing the color of gums.
Laser Crown Contouring
Crown lengthening involves removing excess gum tissue to reveal more of the tooth structure underneath. The laser-assisted soft-tissue crown-lengthening procedure is a valuable treatment that can establish a healthier and more aesthetic appearance. It is less time consuming, has a shorter healing time and less operative pain.
