What is a Dental Laser?

A dental laser is exactly what it sounds like. It is an advanced tool that can make dental treatment so much easier and allows you to experience a shorter recovery time. The dental laser technology we use at Dental & TMJ Specialists of Greater DC is the Epic Laser by Biolase. The laser energy can be used to treat a variety of dental concerns, including oral lesions, periodontal disease, pain, and stains on teeth. It’s a perfect teeth whitening option, but can also help with a gummy smile, growths, and gum pigmentation.

The Biolase laser uses both light and thermal energy to provide precise, efficient, and gentle treatment.
