Laser Assisted  Soft Tissue Surgeries

Lasers can be used for a wide range of dental procedures. In some cases they completely replace the conventional treatment, and for other procedures they are used to complement the existing treatment. In all cases, lasers can achieve better results.


Soft tissue surgeries  performed with dental lasers will heal more quickly than conventional treatments. After a laser procedure, the treated area is left sterilised and sealed, and is advanced in the healing process compared to conventional treatments.


Lasers can be used for many procedures. These procedures include:

Reshaping or removing tissue (Gingivectomy): The procedure may be done for  esthetic reasons TO CORRECT A GUMMY SMILE OR FOR CROWN LENGTHENING PROCEDURE .

Clipping Muscle attachment (Frenectomy): The procedure may be used to remove an attachment that is interfering with normal speech.

Removing Soft Tissue Growths (Fibroma Removal): The procedure is used to remove excess tissue or growths that may be an esthetic or functional issue.

Gently removing swollen tissues (Gingivoplasty): The procedure is used to remove excessive tissue caused by systemic disease, medications, braces or poor oral hygiene.

Treatment of Herpetic & Apthous Ulcers: Laser treatment is used to treat herpetic or apthous lesions, stopping the progression of the disease, cauterizing nerve endings and giving immediate relief from itching, burning, tingling or pain. Laser treatment bio-stimulates the area encouraging quicker healing, in the case of the herpetic lesion, killing the viral particles which means an active lesion can immediately convert to the healing phase. Treatment of Herpetic lesions during the prodromal stage can stop the lesion from ever manifesting.
