Laser Therapy

Our Edmonton dentists use lasers to perform a variety of dental procedures with less pain and fewer medical interventions.

What is Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy is the use of lasers in dentistry as an alternative to traditional dental tools. Using laser energy, your dentist can perform many dental procedures with little or no freezing, or without a drill.

About Dental Lasers

A dental laser is a focused light beam often used on teeth, gums or other soft tissues to repair decay or disease. Dental lasers allow patients to be more comfortable both during and after treatment.

The laser beam sterilizes the affected area and seals off blood vessels, which minimizes chances of swelling or bleeding. Precise and accurate, lasers allow our dentists to perform dental procedures with fewer medical interventions.

Uses For Dental Lasers

At Scotia Square Dentistry, our dentists use lasers in a variety of applications, including:

To remove tooth decay and prepare for a dental filling
To reshape gums and remove bacteria during gum therapy
To sterilize teeth during a root canal
To activate the bleaching solution used in teeth whitening
