What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry represents a breakthrough in dental care. It uses focused light beams to perform a wide range of dental procedures. Dr. Foleck employs state-of-the-art dental lasers that can treat both soft tissue (gums) and hard tissue (teeth) with remarkable precision. This technology minimizes bleeding, reduces the need for anesthesia, and preserves healthy tooth structure.
The laser systems in Hampton Coliseum operate by delivering energy in the form of light. When the laser comes into contact with tissue, it causes a reaction that allows Dr. Foleck to remove or shape the tissue. The precision of laser technology means surrounding areas remain unaffected, leading to better outcomes and more comfortable treatments.

What makes laser dentistry different from traditional dental treatments?
Benefits of Laser Dentistry Over Traditional Tools
Compared to a traditional dental drill, laser dentistry offers a quieter, less stressful experience. Patients often notice less vibration and reduced anxiety, especially during soft tissue procedures. By eliminating the need for a dental drill in many cases, treatments can be completed with greater accuracy and comfort.
Treating More Than Just Gums
Laser dentistry treatment isn’t just about aesthetics or gum treatments. Dental lasers are effective in treating a range of conditions—from reducing symptoms of gum disease to minimizing discomfort caused by canker sores, cold sores, or even a sore throat. Soft tissue treatments like these typically cause less swelling and require less anesthesia, allowing patients to recover quickly and get back to daily life.
Healing with Precision
Because laser therapy targets only diseased tissue, the surrounding healthy tissue is preserved. This method results in less bleeding, less pain, and faster healing. Laser treatment is especially beneficial for procedures involving the gums, upper lip, or other delicate areas of the mouth.
Cost-Effective and Efficient
While cost can vary depending on the procedure, laser dentistry often leads to fewer follow-up visits and shorter treatment times. The efficient treatments provided by laser technology can mean lower overall costs for patients. Our team is happy to explain the benefits, expected outcomes, and costs during your consultation.
