What Is A Soft Tissue Laser?
A soft tissue laser is a cutting-edge dental tool that utilizes focused beams of light to perform various procedures. These lasers are specifically designed to target and interact with soft tissues like gums, mucosa and other oral structures. Soft tissue lasers are typically compact, handheld devices that emit high-energy light in the form of laser beams. The wavelength of the laser determines its suitability for specific dental applications.

Benefits of Soft Tissue Lasers
Soft tissue lasers offer several key advantages in dentistry:
- Minimally Invasive: Soft tissue lasers minimize the need for traditional scalpel incisions, reducing patient discomfort, swelling and bleeding during and after procedures.
- Precision: These lasers provide exceptional precision, allowing our dentist to target specific areas with minimal impact on surrounding tissues.
- Faster Healing: Soft tissue laser procedures typically result in faster healing times, reducing the risk of infection and discomfort for patients.
- Reduced Need for Anesthesia: In many cases, soft tissue laser procedures require less or no local anesthesia, making treatments more comfortable for patients who may have dental anxiety or needle phobia.
- Minimal Scarring: Soft tissue lasers promote better cosmetic outcomes with minimal scarring or tissue damage, enhancing patient satisfaction.
