Laser Dentistry in Surrey
Precise, Gentle, and Minimally Invasive Dental Treatments
At Heavenly Dental in Surrey, we use advanced laser dentistry technology to offer patients a more comfortable and efficient alternative to traditional dental procedures. Laser treatments allow for increased precision, reduced discomfort, minimal bleeding, and faster healing; making it a great option for patients who prefer gentle dental care.
What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry uses focused beams of light to treat both hard and soft tissues in the mouth. This technology enables us to remove or reshape tissue with incredible accuracy and minimal impact on surrounding areas. Laser dentistry is especially beneficial for patients with dental anxiety or those seeking a less invasive treatment option.
Conditions Treated with Dental Lasers
Laser dentistry can be used for a wide range of dental procedures, including:
- Gum disease therapy: Removing bacteria and infected tissue
- Cold sore and canker sore relief: Minimizing discomfort and accelerating healing
- Root canal disinfection: Cleaning and sterilizing the infected canal
- Crown lengthening and gum reshaping: Improving tooth and gum aesthetics
- Wisdom tooth exposure: Uncovering impacted teeth during orthodontic treatment
- Sleep apnea support: Removing soft tissue obstructions in the airway
- Benign growth removal: Eliminating soft tissue lesions or oral tumors
- Nerve regeneration support: Stimulating nerve healing in affected areas

Types of Dental Lasers We Use
At Heavenly Dental, we use two main types of lasers, customized for specific dental needs:
Hard Tissue Lasers
Used for teeth and bone, these lasers can:
- Detect and treat cavities
- Reduce tooth sensitivity
- Prepare teeth for fillings and restorations with precision
Soft Tissue Lasers
These are ideal for gums and oral soft tissue. They are used for:
- Gum reshaping and contouring
- Crown lengthening for aesthetic or restorative purposes
- Treating tongue-tie in children and adults
- Removing soft tissue folds caused by dentures
- Reducing inflammation and improving gum appearance
Soft tissue lasers cauterize as they cut, resulting in cleaner procedures with minimal bleeding and faster healing.
