A Cut Above the Rest
Advanced Surgical Lasers in Lancaster, PA
Lasers are transforming medical and dental surgery by offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional scalpel and suture procedures. The laser's intense, narrow wavelength has precise and predictable reactions when it contacts soft tissues of the body. Laser light is extremely efficient and produces very little heat. This makes it ideal for oral surgery, since it seldom affects tissues other than those it targets. The laser provides precise cutting control, while simultaneously minimizing bleeding and sterilizing the treatment area. For some laser treatments, pain medication may not be necessary.
Drs. Sudbrink and Vakkas use solid state (diode) and CO2 laser systems for the following procedures and more:
- Frenectomies
- Uncovering teeth for orthodontics
- Periodontal surgery
