Laser Dentistry Treatments

Izadi Orthodontics offers these treatments to patients:

Tongue-Tie

A condition that some children are born with, tongue-tie is characterized by the restriction of the tongue or lips. Tongue-tie is caused by a tight frenulum or the soft tissue that connects the tongue to the base of the mouth. During treatment, the frenulum is precisely cut with a laser to give the tongue and lips a normal range of motion. If not treated, tongue-tie can become a significant speech impediment.

Gum Contouring

For patients who want a more balanced smile, gum contouring can be an excellent option. For this procedure, a laser removes excess gum tissue and uncovers the teeth underneath the gums.

Laser dental treatments have the ability to give patients precise and long-lasting results for beautiful and healthy smiles. Procedures are painless and can quickly heal for a comfortable experience for patients of all ages.
