LightScalpel CO2 laser is a powerful laser that allows surgical treatment of soft tissue with no inflammation or pain! It allows us to treat and remove unwanted inflamed and infected tissue with healing times far less than any traditional incisions made by a scalpel. There is shorter healing time and less discomfort overall.
A veneer is useful for rejuvenating a person’s smile when the stains in the teeth are deeper. A thin porcelain veneer is molded to fit the front of the teeth and applied with a very strong dental bonding agent. The veneers are realistic looking and stain resistant. They also last much longer than a chemical teeth whitening procedure and can last up to 15 years! Veneers are also useful for correcting the appearance of chipped or cracked teeth.

Teeth whitening will usually involve a professional cleaning, followed by the application of a special bleaching gel to the teeth with a custom fabricated mouth piece. Learn more about teeth whitening.
If a person has a “gummy” smile or if her gums have receded, a cosmetic gum surgery can correct it. Gum tissue can be removed and shaped to make the teeth appear larger and the mouth more uniform. Alternatively, tissue can be added to a receding gum line in order to show less of the teeth structures. Cosmetic gum surgery can be performed with a scalpel or a laser, typically under a local anesthetic.
These are just a few options for a smile makeover. There are many other procedures at your dentist’s disposal, so contact us about how to give your smile a brighter look!
