Soft Tissue Laser: Right For You?

We weren't born with perfectly shaped teeth? Few of us were. But did you know that there might be an easy fix for that? A treatment with a soft tissue laser can give you the smile of your dreams in one office visit. While it’s more important to have healthy teeth and gums, it’s hard not to want that “perfect” smile as well. Someone with a radiant smile is considered more successful, wealthier and more attractive, and you deserve to be that someone.

Many adults have “short teeth,” sometimes called a “gummy smile,” in need of reshaping. Actually, their teeth are the correct length; it’s just that the gum tissue covers more of the tooth surface than it should. A soft tissue laser uses a high energy beam of light to re-contour your gums. This minimally invasive method simply trims back the excess gum tissue to reveal your hidden smile. Unlike a surgical procedure, a soft tissue laser beam pinpoints just a few cells at a time.

A laser beam is used to remove extra gum cells using a heat method that doesn't “cut” into the gum tissue. This heat method also seals the gum tissue in a similar manner to cauterization. No stitches required! The laser leaves no scarring, is virtually pain- and complication-free, and it speeds up your healing time. In fact, the procedure is so simple and non-invasive that you are ready to continue your busy day when you leave the office.
