Enhance Dental Treatments With Laser Precision

Our two dental lasers give you treatment that is gentle and efficient. The Fotona LightWalker® features both Nd:YAG and Er:YAG wavelengths, allowing us to treat both hard and soft tissues. We can perform teeth whitening, gum contouring, conservative decay repair, gum disease therapy, oral surgery, implant procedures, and more with minimal discomfort and faster recovery.

The SOL Diode Laser lets us safely reduce bacteria and precisely contour soft tissue. Both lasers help minimize the need for traditional care, shorten your healing time, and give better results. Our team tailors the wavelength and settings to your needs, to ensure your procedure is as comfortable and effective as possible.

Improve Your Life With Gentle Laser Therapy

Our laser technology also enhances your quality of life beyond standard dental treatments. NightLase® gently tightens oral tissues to improve your airflow, reducing snoring and lessening the effects of sleep apnea. ComfortLase uses near-infrared light to reduce TMJ pain, ease muscle soreness, and improve healing after dental procedures.

For cosmetic benefits, LipLase naturally plumps lips by stimulating collagen, while SmoothLase and NeckLase procedures tighten and smooth skin without surgery or injectables, giving you the beautiful, full look, or smoother skin that you are looking for. Cold sore treatments can minimize outbreaks and speed healing.

This was the BEST dentist office I had ever been in. It was absolutely wonderful. The people was very pleasant. Very nice. Was very concerned about your comfort and your well-being. They could hold an intelligent conversation with you. Didn't make you feel less than it was. Definitely a one-of-a-kind experience for me. I would advise every single person that I know to go to this dentistry. They are very very welcoming. You will not have a problem in going back to these people. The only sad part about it is I can only give five stars. Love these people! I am so glad that I chose them.

I’ve been a patient with dr. Elrod for 20 plus years. Hands down the best dentist in the country! All the work I’ve had done is the best quality and lasts. I still have some CEREC that have lasted over 20 years. This is the only dentist I’ve been to that I’m actually excited to go to.

Above and beyond exceptional service!! The office is stunning and the staff are exceptional. I'm definitely appreciative of the tour and gift! Very friendly and knowledgeable. They took their time and didn't make me feel like just another patient. Most importantly, I felt comfortable and heard. My only regret is not becoming a new patient sooner. Never had an experience like that at a dental office before! Thank you DDS!

I did an in office teeth whitening appointment. I thought front staff very friendly and my appointment was on time. They actually accommodated an earlier time for me. I am pleased with the results and would definitely recommend this facility! The staff was very friendly and listened to my concerns.
