Laser dentistry
While laser dentistry may sound like science fiction, it's quickly becoming a mainstream technology in modern dental care. At DC Implant & Cosmetic Dentistry, we use advanced dental laser systems to perform a variety of procedures — from cavity removal to gum surgery — with greater precision and minimal discomfort.
Laser dentistry offers a less invasive alternative to traditional methods, often resulting in faster healing, reduced bleeding, and a more comfortable experience for our patients. Whether you're undergoing restorative or periodontal care, our goal is to make your treatment as seamless and stress-free as possible using the latest technology.

The basics of laser dentistry
laser dentistry specialists in Washington, DC
Laser dentistry refers to the use of medical-grade lasers to perform a variety of dental procedures safely and effectively. Used in the medical field for decades, dental lasers deliver a concentrated beam of light to precisely cut, reshape, or remove soft or hard tissue with minimal discomfort.
At DC Implant & Cosmetic Dentistry, we use laser technology for treatments such as:
- Cavity removal
- Gum disease therapy
- Teeth whitening
- Gum reshaping and contouring
Dental lasers often replace traditional tools like drills and scalers, offering a more precise, quieter, and gentler experience. Many patients report less discomfort, reduced bleeding, and faster recovery following laser procedures — making it a preferred choice for both cosmetic and therapeutic care.
Laser Dentistry Benefits
When determining whether laser dentistry should be part of your personalized care plan, it’s important to understand the many advantages this advanced technology offers. Because lasers are less invasive and more precise than traditional dental instruments, incorporating them into your treatment can provide a wide range of benefits, including:
How Long Do Laser
Dentistry Procedures Take?
The duration of a laser dentistry procedure can vary widely depending on the type and complexity of the treatment. In general, appointments can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 2 hours.
Hard tissue laser procedures — which involve treating the teeth or jawbone (such as cavity removal) — typically take 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the location and extent of the decay.
Soft tissue laser procedures, involving the gums or other oral tissues, may take up to two hours, especially if treating larger areas or performing multiple procedures at once.
While some laser treatments may sound lengthy, they often
replace multi-visit procedures done with traditional tools, offering a
faster and more efficient overall experience. To better understand the
specific length of your laser treatment, speak directly with your
dentist at DC Implant & Cosmetic Dentistry. We'll walk you through what to expect and ensure your appointment is as efficient and comfortable as possible.
