Laser Dentistry
Minimally invasive laser treatments for faster healing and greater comfort.
Laser dentistry uses focused light energy to treat gums, soft tissue, and some hard tissue with minimal bleeding and no drills or stitches in many cases. It reduces pain, speeds healing, and is ideal for gum reshaping, lesion removal, and bacterial reduction — usually completed in 15–60 minutes.

Cost Range

Recovery
Recovery is usually quick — most patients resume normal activity the same day. Treated areas may feel tender for 1–2 days; soft foods and gentle oral care are recommended. Complete tissue healing typically occurs within 1–2 weeks.
Understanding Laser CareTreatment
Dental lasers deliver precise, concentrated light that can cut or vaporize tissue with exceptional control. Because the laser simultaneously seals blood vessels and nerve endings, many procedures are nearly bloodless and far more comfortable.
Common uses include gum contouring for a balanced smile, treating gum disease by removing infected tissue and bacteria, removing lesions or growths, and assisting in cavity preparation with less noise and vibration than a drill.
Dr. Prem Kumar integrates laser technology with microscopic viewing for pinpoint accuracy, preserving healthy tissue and promoting faster, more comfortable recovery.
