What Is Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry Therapy?
Soft tissue laser therapy uses focused light energy to gently reshape, remove, or disinfect soft tissues inside the mouth. Instead of using a scalpel, the laser precisely targets gums and other tissues with minimal bleeding, faster healing, and improved comfort.
The laser energy is absorbed by water and pigmented cells, allowing extremely controlled tissue modification. This makes it ideal for gum sculpting, periodontal therapy, and delicate soft-tissue procedures. This modern technique enhances esthetics, improves gum health, and supports overall oral wellness—often with far less discomfort than traditional methods.
When Laser Therapy Makes a Difference
Our laser approach is beneficial in multiple scenarios:
Gumline Contouring & Smile Refinement – Balance your smile by reducing excess gum tissue and revealing more of your natural teeth.
Periodontal Pocket Treatment – For patients with gum disease, the laser can help decontaminate deeper gum pockets and support healing alongside cleanings.
Frenum Release (Tongue-Tie / Lip-Tie) – A quick, comfortable laser release can correct functional issues with minimal downtime.
Minor Crown Lengthening – When gums obscure too much tooth structure, the laser exposes more for restorative or cosmetic benefit.
Ulcer & Lesion Therapy – Laser can reduce pain and accelerate healing of soft‐tissue lesions, such as canker sores.

FAQs
Q: Is Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry Therapy treatment painful?
Most patients report that laser procedures are more comfortable than traditional soft tissue surgery. The laser can seal tiny nerve endings as it works, which helps reduce postoperative pain. Local anesthesia is used when needed so you stay comfortable throughout.
Q: How long does a soft tissue laser procedure take?
Procedure time depends on the type of treatment and how many areas are involved. Many small procedures (like minor contouring or ulcer treatment) can be completed in a single, short visit, while more extensive periodontal treatments may require longer or multiple visits.
Q: Is laser gum treatment safer or better than traditional surgery?
Laser therapy isn’t “better” in every situation, but in the right cases it offers clear benefits: less bleeding, reduced trauma to surrounding tissue, and often quicker recovery. For advanced bone defects or complex periodontal conditions, traditional or combined surgical approaches may still be the best option.
Q: Can soft tissue laser therapy be combined with other dental treatments?
Yes. Lasers are frequently used as an adjunct to deep cleanings, restorative dentistry, orthodontic exposure, tooth extraction sites, and even cosmetic treatments, to improve comfort and healing and to better manage soft tissues.
Q: How many visits will I need for laser gum treatment?
Some localized procedures are completed in one visit. More advanced periodontal laser therapy may involve one or two primary treatment visits plus follow-up appointments to monitor healing and maintain results.
Q: Is soft tissue laser therapy covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by plan. When laser is used as part of periodontal treatment, it may be covered under existing gum therapy benefits. Cosmetic-only procedures (like minor gum reshaping) are less likely to be covered. We’ll help you check your specific benefits.
