Lasers bring relief to West Milford cold sore sufferers

Modern dentistry now has another tool to relieve patients discomfort. Dental lasers can stop cold sore pain and reduce their duration. The procedure is quick and comfortable. Patients get immediate relief. Dental lasers offer many options for the patient and doctor. These include desensitization of teeth and removal of tissue covering 3rd molars. When 3rd molars only partially erupt a "flap" of tissue lies over the 3rd molar. Very often food is trapped under the tissue and an infection occurs. Before the laser, removal of the "flap" was not suggested as they would grow back with prior methods. This changed with the laser. When the "flap" is removed with a laser it does not grow back.

Other uses include cosmetic contouring of the gums especially in the anterior region and frenectomies to prevent and stop the gums being pulled off a tooth. Healing is fast and there is very little post operative discomfort.
