Modern dental care is always evolving, and part of that evolution involves the incorporation of laser dentistry as a facet of holistic dental care. At Aesthetic Dentistry of Lake Oswego, we use advanced laser dentistry technology as part of our holistic approach to prevention and treatment. We’re committed to providing dental care that supports your whole-body wellness.

Laser dentistry offers the following benefits:

  • Precise treatments with minimal discomfort
  • Faster healing times compared to traditional methods
  • A biocompatible approach to dentistry that works with your body’s natural healing processes

Understanding the Foundation: Holistic Dentistry

Holistic dentistry involves taking a whole-body approach to oral health. With this philosophy, we recognize that there is a deep connection between the health of your mouth and your overall health and well-being. Rather than focusing on treating symptoms or individual dental problems, we are concerned with how your dental health and treatments impact your entire body.

Our Core Principles

We prioritize biocompatible materials that work in harmony with your body chemistry. Our team uses ozone therapy, laser dentistry, SMART-certified mercury removal, and metal-free materials. These treatments reduce potential reactions while supporting your natural healing processes. We also use biocompatibility testing to ensure that our treatments align with your individual needs.

What is Laser Dentistry?

Laser technology has truly changed dental treatment since it became precise enough to use in the 1990s. Using lasers during treatments allows for:

  • Precision tissue sectioning
  • Minimized damage to nearby structures
  • Faster recovery with less inflammation
  • Reduction in the need for local anesthesia in some procedures
  • Increased comfort

At Aesthetic Dentistry of Lake Oswego, we use laser dentistry to treat periodontal disease, assist with procedures like dental fillings, and relieve snoring and sleep apnea symptoms.

Laser dentistry in Lake Oswego supports our commitment to holistic, biocompatible care. The technology works with your body’s natural healing mechanisms rather than against them.
