Laser dentistry in Stoney Creek

A dental laser lets us treat soft tissue precisely and gently. We use it for tongue ties and lip ties, snoring, cold sores and more, for both children and adults.

Laser Dentistry at Battlefield Dental, Stoney Creek

Tongue ties and lip ties

A tight band of tissue under the tongue or lip can affect feeding in babies and speech, eating and oral hygiene later on. Releasing it with a laser is quick and precise, and for many patients means little bleeding and a comfortable recovery. We will assess first and explain whether treatment is likely to help.

Snoring treatment

Laser treatment can gently tighten the soft tissue at the back of the mouth that vibrates during sleep. It is done in the dental chair with no cutting. Snoring can also be a sign of sleep apnea, so we may suggest you speak with your physician as well.

Cold sores

Treating a cold sore with the laser at the first tingle can ease discomfort and may help it heal sooner.

And more

Lasers are also useful for reshaping gum tissue and other minor soft-tissue procedures. Ask us whether it applies to your treatment.

Common Questions

Good to know.

Does laser treatment hurt?

Most patients find it very comfortable. Depending on the procedure we may use a small amount of freezing, and nitrous oxide is available if you are anxious.

Is it safe for babies and children?

Yes, when it is appropriate for the child. We will examine your child, talk through what we find and answer your questions before recommending anything.
