Laser Dentistry In Ajax, Ontario

Dr. Patel Dentistry in Ajax is now offering some dental services with the use of laser treatments. Laser therapy allows us to treat many dental procedures:

• Removal of small lesions on the gum tissue and re-contouring of the gum line can be done with minimal discomfort
• Desensitizing teeth for people that suffer from heightened temperature sensitivity.
• Treatment of peri-implantitis – Peri-implantitis is a disease that causes an inflammatory process in the soft and hard tissues surrounding an osseointegrated implant, leading to the loss of supporting bone
• Treatment of cold and canker sore pain
• Laser teeth whitening
• Gum therapy/periodontal disease

Laser therapy can limit the bacteria that cause gum disease. However, it’s not an alternative solution to scaling and root planning (teeth cleaning services) but used in conjunction with them. Laser therapy not only allows Dr. Patel to precisely target areas in need of treatment but also offers benefits such as:

• Reduced pain and bleeding during treatment
• Decreased need for anesthesia
• Faster post-operative healing
• Minimize trauma to the tissue

Gummy Smile? We provide laser gum lift procedures.

Laser gum treatment not only treats gum disease – but it can also enhance the appearance of your smile. If you have excess gum tissue that makes your teeth look shorter than they are, dental lasers can be used to perform a gum lift. During this procedure, Dr. Patel permanently removes excess gum tissue, creating a more attractive frame for your teeth. Ajax dentist Dr. Patel can analyze your smile to determine if the excess gum tissue is compromising the appearance of your teeth.
