About laser dentistry

Laser Dentistry at Bensonhurst Dental Care

Laser dentistry represents one of the most significant advancements in modern dental care, offering patients treatments that are more precise, more comfortable, and less invasive than many traditional approaches. Dental lasers deliver concentrated light energy that can target specific tissues with remarkable accuracy, allowing for procedures that involve less bleeding, reduced swelling, faster healing, and in many cases, no need for anesthesia. At Bensonhurst Dental Care, laser technology is integrated across a wide range of services, from soft tissue treatments to pain management and infection control.

Dr. Alex Rubinshtein leads the practice's laser dentistry program, bringing over 22 years of clinical experience and membership in the Academy of Laser Dentistry to every case. Dr. Alex has long been committed to deploying the latest advances in dental technology, and laser dentistry is a cornerstone of that commitment. His expertise allows the practice to offer laser-based solutions for conditions that were once treated only with scalpels, drills, or more invasive surgical methods.

The scope of laser dentistry at Bensonhurst Dental Care spans both cosmetic and therapeutic applications. Soft tissue procedures such as gum contouring, gum reshaping, and frenectomy can be completed with minimal discomfort and dramatically reduced recovery times. Periodontal applications including laser periodontal therapy (LANAP), treatment of gum disease bacteria, and peri-implantitis treatment allow Dr. Alex to address infection and disease with precision that preserves healthy tissue.

Beyond gum-related care, laser technology at the practice extends to cavity treatment, tooth desensitization, treatment of ulcers and lesions, tissue regeneration, pain reduction therapy, and TMJ pain laser therapy. Each of these services reflects the practice's broader philosophy: leveraging technology to deliver better outcomes, greater comfort, and a more refined patient experience.
