A Picasso dental laser is a tremendous benefit for patients. It enables the patient to remain in office and not visit a periodontist for some specific dental needs. Today with our Picasso laser the dentist is able to relieve pain and the life span of oral canker sores by using laser energy to penetrate the lesion in order to heal the canker sore. No anesthetic is necessary for this procedure. The laser is also useful in removing bacteria from infected areas by the laser energy.
