At Fairlington Dental, we use advanced LightScalpel CO₂ laser technology to deliver precise, gentle dental care with less discomfort and faster healing. This approach aligns closely with our philosophy of integrative dentistry, where technology is used to support comfort, function, and long-term oral health.
LightScalpel laser dentistry allows for highly controlled treatment of soft tissue, making many procedures more comfortable while reducing bleeding, swelling, and recovery time. It is commonly used for soft tissue sculpting, gum contouring, and precise tissue management during restorative and cosmetic dentistry procedures.
Because the laser seals tissue as it works, patients often experience minimal post-treatment sensitivity and can return to normal activities more quickly compared to traditional surgical techniques.
LightScalpel technology is also used as a non-surgical solution for snoring. Gentle laser energy is applied to the soft palate and uvula, helping tighten and firm the tissue that can vibrate during sleep and contribute to snoring.
This in-office treatment stimulates collagen production, improves tissue tone, and supports better airflow—without cutting, anesthesia, or downtime. For patients exploring alternatives to oral appliances or CPAP, laser snoring treatment may serve as a conservative option or complement to care offered through our sleep apnea and snoring treatments.
Most patients complete treatment in a short series of visits and appreciate the minimally invasive nature of this approach.
Patients often choose LightScalpel laser treatment because it offers:
Laser dentistry can be especially beneficial for patients seeking conservative treatment options that support overall oral and airway health.
