Here at Allison Jung Family Dentistry, we are committed to investing in the latest technology the dental industry has to offer. Technologically advanced equipment makes it possible for us to offer minimally invasive oral surgery and other dental procedures. That means less discomfort and faster healing for you. The Synapse Laser in Fort Collins CO is one such piece of equipment that we are pleased to own.

The Synapse Laser is a handheld, biocompatible piece of equipment that we use for everything from routine teeth cleaning to complex oral surgery. Dr. Allison Jung or Dr. Paul Stavrakas direct a beam of light energy towards the area of your mouth requiring treatment. Dental lasers are incredibly accurate and do not produce any discomfort while your dentist completes your treatment or scan.

The Synapse Laser offers the flexibility to use in a number of dental procedures, including the following:

Benefits of the Synapse Laser

The ability to complete non-invasive procedures that our dentists could not have previously attempted is one of the biggest benefits of using the Synapse Laser at Allison Jung Family Dentistry. Other benefits include:

• The Synapse Laser prevents bacteria from accessing open wounds in your mouth, leading to a quicker and more comfortable healing process.
• The energy beam from the Synapse Laser cauterizes your gum tissue as it cuts, which in turn causes less bleeding and discomfort during and after your dental procedure.
• The greater precision of the Synapse Laser makes it a much better choice than a scalpel for treating gum disease and completing oral surgery.

The Synapse Laser is also more comfortable for people with dental anxiety. If you have been avoiding scheduling necessary dental treatment, we hope the fact that we use a Synapse Laser in Fort Collins CO changes your mind about coming to see us.
