What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry is one of the most innovative advancements in modern dental care, offering precision, comfort, and quicker healing times compared to traditional methods. Instead of relying solely on scalpels or drills, dental lasers use focused light energy to treat a variety of soft tissue concerns.
Ranging from reshaping gum lines to treating infections. with minimal discomfort and reduced recovery periods. This technology has transformed the way we perform both functional and cosmetic dental procedures.
If you are looking to address an infection in the gums, refine the look of your smile, or shorten implant recovery time, laser dentistry makes it possible to do so with exceptional accuracy and gentle care.
Ultradent Gemini Soft Tissue Laser
At our practice, we use the Ultradent Gemini soft tissue laser, a leading-edge tool designed for both clinical precision and patient comfort. This dual-wavelength laser allows us to tailor treatment to your specific needs, whether that’s restoring gum health or enhancing the aesthetics of your smile.

Laser Dentistry’s Remarkable Benefits
Laser dentistry offers compelling benefits that are hard to overlook. This high-end laser efficiently reshapes smiles. Here are just a few of the many benefits that patients love about this advanced form of care.
Same-Day Results
Laser dentistry helps us speed up dental treatment, allowing our dentists to often perform restorative and cosmetic dental work on the same day. This process helps our patients feel more comfortable in the dental chair and allows us to spend our time as wisely as we can.
Improved Cosmetics
Traditional dental methods often require the use of invasive drills that can leave imprints during more intense dental procedures. Laser dentistry uses ultra-thin lasers to precisely address points of concern, providing a beautiful smile through each step of the dental process.
Improved Healing Time and Comfort
Laser dentistry is highly recognized for its fast healing times. Our laser treatments are calculated to properly address precise areas of tooth damage, reducing the time spent in a surgical environment. Along with precision, they naturally cauterize wounds and remove bacteria during your dental visit.
These dental tools are also minimally invasive during the procedure, which can be a better option for patients dealing with a gag reflex or tooth sensitivity.
Reduced Pain
Laser dentistry causes minimal to no pain while the dental work takes place. Bahr Dental also provides sedatives, which are calming medical drugs, for larger-scale dental procedures such as wisdom teeth removals or gingivectomies.
If you happen to experience some pain after your dental work takes place, we recommend using an ice pack or pain relievers to help ease the discomfort. Most patients find that their pain tends to go away after a few days.
Minimal Dental Trauma
The advanced precision of laser technology allows dental procedures to be performed with minimal trauma to the surrounding tissues. This means that many treatments can be done with little or no need for sutures or injections, which significantly reduces patient discomfort during and after the procedure.
Additionally, the laser’s gentle approach often leads to less swelling and pain, making the entire experience much more comfortable compared to traditional surgical methods.
A Minimally Invasive Approach to Periodontal Care
Laser dentistry offers a modern, patient-friendly alternative to traditional periodontal treatments like deep cleanings or scaling and root planing. At Bahr Dental, we use the Ultradent Gemini laser to treat gum disease with greater comfort, less downtime, and more precision. This method targets and removes infected tissue while sterilizing the area, reducing bacterial load and promoting healthy gum reattachment, all without the scraping and soreness often associated with deep cleanings.
Because the laser cauterizes as it works, there is little to no bleeding, and most patients experience minimal post-treatment sensitivity. It’s an ideal option for those who may have put off periodontal care due to concerns about discomfort or recovery time. With laser therapy, patients often return to their daily routine the same day.
If you’ve been diagnosed with gum disease or are showing signs of inflammation, laser periodontal treatment may be the solution. Dr. Bahr and Dr. Segura can help you explore whether laser dentistry is right for your smile and your comfort.
Enhancing Smile Makeovers with Laser Gum Contouring
When planning a smile makeover with crowns or veneers, the shape and symmetry of your gum line can make all the difference in your final result. At Bahr Dental, we use the Ultradent Gemini laser to gently sculpt and refine the gum tissue around your teeth, ensuring a clean, balanced frame for your new smile.
This process can be done either before or after placing your veneers or crowns. Before treatment, it allows us to expose more of the natural tooth structure for ideal crown or veneer placement. After placement, it can fine-tune the gum line for a more polished, symmetrical look.
Whether you’re correcting one tooth or enhancing your entire smile, laser gum contouring helps us deliver results that are both healthy and beautiful. If you’re considering crowns or veneers, ask Dr. Bahr and Dr. Segura how laser dentistry can elevate your outcome.
