Gum Disease Laser Therapy

Dr. Malhotra is proud to offer the latest technology available for periodontal therapy: laser treatment. There are numerous advantages to using laser therapy as opposed to the traditional methods requiring a scalpel and sutures.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry:

Comfort:

With laser treatment, there is reduced or no bleeding, minimized swelling, no charring, and no drill noise or vibration. The stress and anxiety often associated with dental work is therefore eliminated when you experience quick, effective, and essentially pain-free laser procedures. Also, postoperative sensitivity is greatly limited by laser dentistry, and recovery time is much quicker than with traditional methods. In fact, due to the less-invasive nature of the laser technique, the mouth begins to heal immediately after work is completed!

Reduced Risk of Infection:

The laser’s high-energy light beam acts as a sterilizer on the area it is working, thereby reducing the risk of bacterial infections and relapses.

Anesthesia Limited or Eliminated:

Because laser dentistry is virtually painless, no longer will you suffer with fear of injections and numbness. Often, only a light anesthetic spray is required. Laser treatment eliminates the complications and cost associated with anesthesia.

Uses of Dental Lasers:

Dr. Malhotra can perform a variety of procedures using laser technology, such as a frenectomy, osseous surgery, and gum grafting. Dr. Malhotra is also able to use laser technology as a way to regenerate healthy gums and remove diseases areas in a virtually painless way. This method also encourages healthy gum to regenerate and attach to the teeth. There is a much lower chance of gum disease returning when laser therapy is used as opposed to traditional surgery.

I have dental PTSD and was very hesitant to believe the other 5 star reviews of this place. However, I was completely blown away. Do not judge a book by its cover. The parking lot in front of the office is not the most amazing place. I had already thought that I would not like the place from the outside. I was so wrong and surprised. My experience was AMAZING! Not only were the staff and Dr. Malhotra very friendly, they were human. I was treated like a human being, not some lab rat. And they were human - they wanted to talk to me and tell me about themselves. Also, everything that was being done to my mouth - was EXPLAINED! I could not believe how thorough and interesting it was to understand what was going on. There is a screen above the patient seat where one is shown all the Xrays, the imaging, and the diagrams of one's own mouth. I could not believe how exciting it was to see my teeth and have all my problems explained to me. How is it that all my previous dentists thought it would be a good idea to just give recommendations and keep all their patients in the dark!? I have never had such a great time at a dental office. Also, Dr. Malhotra could sense when I was in pain and made sure to adjust her instruments to make sure I was comfortable. I felt that she is a natural teacher and approaches patients like she would students. She teaches in a non-judgemental way that makes one feel calm. I cannot believe she helped me learn so much about my mouth. I am definitely going back to this place while I live in the area.

I initial went to Dr. Sarita for Modern Smiles introductory special. The examine and evaluation were completed extremely professionally and the condition of my teeth and gums discussed with me in detail. The cleaning was thorough and painless. I was so impressed that I immediately made an appointment for the filling of two cavities that were found. I would highly recommend Dr. Sarita for her professionalism, her skills at interacting with patients and the quality of her care. Her assistant Megan was also very professional and friendly.

Dr. Sarita is wonderful. She knows what she's doing and can explain it in a way that makes sense. She cares abut her patients. Her office is state-of-the-art. This was my first visit, and I'm going back for two-follow up procedures, something I had been putting off for years due to bad experiences with previous dentists.

My mother visited Dr. Malhotra to resolve some mouth pain she had been experiencing. Dr. Malhotra identified and resolved the issues in one visit. My mother, herself a retired dentist, was very impressed with the quality of Dr. Malhotra's work. She was at ease and very relaxed under the care of Dr. Malhotra and her staff.

My first visit to Dr. Malhotra’s office was great! she was very nice and friendly. She and her staff made me feel very welcome and comfortable. Throughout the treatment she made sure I was comfortable, she was very gentle, I did not even know how fast my appointment was done. Watching Netflix on the chair TV was entertaining. Best experience I’ve had going to a dentist in a long time!
