Using our Er-Cr:YSGG laser, Dr. Freelove can release tongue- or lip-ties in under two minutes. Babies latch better the same day and older kids speak more clearly—without stitches.

Early Cavity Detection = Smaller Fillings

Our DIAGNOdent laser finds enamel weakness before it becomes a full cavity, so we can remineralize rather than drill. When a filling is needed, the laser conserves up to 85% more healthy tooth structure.

Less Anxiety, More Smiles

Kids wearing headphones barely notice the laser’s soft “puff” sound. Up to 90% of our laser fillings require no local anesthetic, which means no numb lips afterwards.

Back to School the Same Day

The laser seals nerve endings and blood vessels as it works, so most patients need only children’s Tylenol—no narcotics or lengthy downtime.
