Laser dentistry is a relatively new innovation in the field of oral care, but Dr. Burgess of The Burgess Center for Cosmetic Dentistry has been actively utilizing this technology for nearly a decade. Laser dentistry at our office is more precise and cleaner than traditional dentistry and can be used in such procedures as the removal of cavities, gum lifts, gum and bone surgery, and the treatment of oral ulcers. In addition to its other advantages, laser surgeries generally take less time to heal and present a lower risk of infection than traditional procedures.
Cosmetic Care
One laser technology that you’ll find at The Burgess Center is the Odyssey diode laser. This laser is used for soft tissue modification, preventative care, and smile design. Dr. Burgess is able to reshape gum lines to enhance smiles by giving teeth a more uniform appearance. This can greatly improve the appearance of a “gummy” smile.
General Care
Odyssey lasers can also be used to advance healing time in infected or irritated tissues of the mouth or gums. Other uses of the Odyssey laser include treatment of deep gingival pockets filled with bacteria, which could potentially cause gum disease, cold sores, or fever blisters if left untreated.
Safe, Precise Results
The Odyssey laser’s primary use is to modify or remove soft tissue from the mouth. Because of the photo-thermal nature of the laser, Dr. Burgess is able to modify the tissue of the gums surrounding your teeth and reduce bleeding at the same time. The cleanliness of an oral surgery performed with the Odyssey laser at the Burgess Center far surpasses that of any other surgical method.
