Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry — precision meets comfort
Advanced laser technology allows us to perform minimally invasive procedures with less pain, less bleeding, and faster healing. Experience dental care reimagined.
Overview
Some of the latest dental lasers in the industry
The Dental Studio of Midland is equipped with the Lutronix Denta 2 CO2 laser and the BIOLASE Epic 3 Diode laser — two of the latest dental lasers in the industry. Together they let our doctors perform highly targeted, precise soft-tissue procedures that traditionally required a scalpel: treating gum disease, releasing tight frenums, reshaping gum lines, and clearing infection from around dental implants — often with no stitches and remarkably fast healing.
Laser treatment may be right if you...
Lasers aren't a gimmick here — they're how we perform many soft-tissue procedures every week. Ask us about laser options for your next procedure.
- Have gum disease that needs treatment
- Want a "gummy" smile corrected without surgery
- Need a frenectomy or gum reshaping (gingivectomy)
- Have inflammation around a dental implant (peri-implantitis)

The process
What a laser visit looks like
Evaluation
We examine the area and confirm whether a laser procedure is the right approach for your case — and explain exactly what to expect.
Targeted treatment
The laser precisely treats the target tissue with minimal bleeding and little to no discomfort — and typically less time in the chair than traditional techniques.
Fast recovery
Laser procedures may not require stitches, and patients typically experience faster wound healing and tissue regeneration afterward.
