Treatment of Cold Sores

The dental laser can minimize or prevent the eruption of unsightly and painful cold sores and fever blisters that erupt on your lips when under stress or
exposed to the sun. If our patients schedule an appointment the moment they feel the common tingly sensation associated with cold sores, the dental laser will
prevent the formation of the blister. If the blister or cold sore is already present, the dental laser will reduce pain and swelling, as well as the overall healing
time.
The dental laser can also treat painful mouth sores like canker sores and aphthous ulcers caused by certain foods and trauma to your cheeks, tongue, and inside
of the lips. All of these procedures are virtually pain-free and do not require any anesthetic or numbing shots. The treatments are typically quick and effective
procedures which our dental team can schedule at your earliest convenience.
