Treating Canker Sores With Laser Treatment
Canker sores and cold sores, also known as fever blisters, are distinct conditions but both can cause painful and embarrassing sores. At Long Beach Dental Health in Long Beach, CA, we offer advanced laser treatments using the Biolase Epic X laser to provide fast, comfortable, and effective relief for both conditions.
Canker Sores and Fever Blisters
Canker sores appear inside the mouth and are not contagious, while cold sores, caused by the herpes simplex virus, form outside the mouth and are highly contagious. Both can be painful and embarrassing, but at Long Beach Dental Health in Long Beach, CA, we offer quick, effective relief using advanced laser treatment.
The Benefits of the Biolase Epic X Dental Laser
Our Biolase Epic X laser provides both hard and soft tissue treatment options. By using this advanced technology instead of a scalpel, we can precisely target specific areas of your smile with greater accuracy, reducing the risk of bleeding or infection and often eliminating the need for anesthesia. For canker and cold sores, the laser targets the affected area, killing the virus, cauterizing the area, and providing immediate relief. You’ll leave our office with a more comfortable, healing smile, all in one visit.
Treating Your Smile
We can also use dental lasers to address other smile concerns. For instance, if you have a gummy smile, where excessive gum tissue makes your teeth appear small or uneven, the laser can comfortably trim away the excess tissue and reshape your gum line for a more balanced, attractive smile. For more advanced gum disease treatment, the laser targets and removes diseased tissue, helping restore oral health. With routine preventive care, we can manage and prevent the disease from progressing further or causing tooth loss. If you have questions about canker sore treatments or need help with a fever blister, contact us today. We're here to provide relief using advanced technology!
