Lasers and Orthodontics

Lasers have revolutionized the way doctors practice dentistry during the past several years.  The diode lasers cut with a very small zone of necrosis, allowing the doctor to perform a wide array of soft-tissue procedures with hemostatis control and the stimulus of rapidhealing.  We are using the microlaser for esthetic recontouring of the gum tisssue, for removal of excessive gum tissue for the proper placement of brackets and for tissue release around erupting teeth.  It also can be used to treat cold sores and apthous ulcers to reduce pain and promote healing.  We are happy to help you with any of these needs.  Give us a call at 503.661.8719 or go to our website at braceyoursmile.com to schedule an appointment.
