Laser Tissue Regeneration in Brooklyn, NY

Low-level laser therapy that supports healing of gum and bone after treatment.

What Is Laser Tissue Regeneration?

Laser-assisted tissue regeneration uses focused light energy to stimulate the body’s natural healing and growth processes in damaged or deficient oral tissues. The laser promotes cellular activity, increases blood flow, and accelerates the repair of soft tissue and, in some applications, bone. This technology allows the practice to support healing after surgical procedures, enhance the outcomes of periodontal treatment, and encourage tissue recovery in areas affected by disease or trauma.

Laser Tissue Regeneration: Quick Facts


Quick fact

Typical answer

Number of visits

1 to several

Time needed

A few minutes per session

Anesthesia

None

Recovery time

None

Used with

Grafting, extractions, implants and other surgery

These are typical ranges. Your own plan is confirmed after an examination.

Who Laser Tissue Regeneration Is For

Low-level laser light, also called photobiomodulation, increases blood flow and cell activity in the area treated. It is used to support healing after another procedure, not as a replacement for it.

  • Recovery after gum or bone grafting

  • Healing after extractions or implant placement

  • Patients who heal slowly, for example with diabetes

  • Sore or slow-healing surgical sites

  • A wish to reduce swelling and discomfort after surgery

Laser Tissue Regeneration at Bensonhurst Dental Care

At Bensonhurst Dental Care, laser tissue regeneration is provided by Dr. Alex Rubinshtein as part of the practice’s comprehensive approach to healing and recovery. The laser is applied to the treatment site using specific wavelengths and energy levels calibrated to promote regeneration without damaging surrounding healthy tissue. The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and requires no anesthesia. It can be performed as a standalone therapy or as an adjunct to other treatments to enhance healing.

What to Expect, Step by Step

  1. Assessment. We confirm the site is suitable.

  2. Laser application. The laser is held over the tissue for a few minutes without touching it.

  3. Repeat sessions. Sessions are repeated over the following days or weeks.

  4. Monitoring. Healing is checked at each visit.

Where low-level laser therapy is used


Situation

Aim

Typical number of sessions

After gum grafting

Less swelling and faster soft tissue healing

1 to 3

After extractions or implants

Greater comfort and healing support

1 to 3

Around bone grafts

Support for the healing response

Several, over weeks

The laser does not heal tissue. It gives the body better conditions in which to heal itself.

Recovery and Aftercare

After laser treatment

The first 24 hours

  • Follow the instructions for the main procedure you had

  • Eat and drink as advised for that procedure

  • No special precautions are needed for the laser session itself

The following days

  • Attend all planned sessions

  • Keep the area clean as instructed

  • Avoid smoking, which slows healing

When to Call Us

Call the office on (718) 234-3434 if you notice any of the following:

  • Healing seems to stall

  • Pain or swelling increases

  • You notice pus or a bad taste

Where It Is Most Useful

Laser tissue regeneration is particularly valuable following periodontal procedures such as pocket reduction surgery, gum grafting, or bone grafting, where supporting the body’s healing response directly impacts the quality and speed of recovery. It is also used in conjunction with LANAP, which inherently incorporates laser energy to stimulate regeneration of bone and connective tissue attachment around the teeth.

Cost and Insurance

Laser treatment is priced by the procedure, not by the use of the laser itself. You are told the fee before treatment.

What affects the cost

  • The procedure being carried out

  • The number of teeth or areas treated

  • The number of sessions needed

  • Whether the laser is used alone or alongside another treatment

Insurance usually covers a laser procedure in the same way as the conventional version of that procedure. Therapy sessions for pain relief may not be covered. Our team can check your benefits and explain your options before treatment begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does laser tissue regeneration work?

The laser delivers specific wavelengths of light energy to the treatment area, which stimulates cellular metabolism, promotes new blood vessel formation, and accelerates the production of collagen and other tissue components. This enhances the body’s natural ability to heal and rebuild.

Is the treatment painful?

No. Laser tissue regeneration is completely painless. Most patients feel only a gentle warmth during the treatment. No anesthesia is needed.

How many sessions are needed?

The number of sessions depends on the condition being treated and the desired outcome. Some patients benefit from a single session after a surgical procedure, while others may require multiple sessions over several weeks for optimal results. Dr. Alex designs a treatment schedule based on each case.

Can laser regeneration replace bone grafting?

Laser regeneration supports and enhances healing but does not replace the need for grafting material in cases of significant bone loss. It is most effective when used in combination with grafting procedures to improve the rate and quality of bone and tissue regeneration.

Who benefits most from laser tissue regeneration?

Patients recovering from periodontal surgery, implant procedures, or soft tissue grafts benefit most. It is also useful for patients with slower healing responses or those who want to support recovery after any invasive dental treatment.

What Our Patients Say

The Best Dental Office – Professional, Caring, and Truly Transformative! In my opinion, Bensonhurst Dental is the best dental office I’ve ever visited—I truly can’t recommend them enough! My journey started with a consultation and treatment plan tailored specifically for me. From the very beginning, I felt supported, understood, and cared for like never before. First, Dr. Geoffrey performed a tooth extraction with incredible care and professionalism, making me feel completely at ease throughout the process. After that, Dr. Nick installed braces to align my teeth and correct my bite—he was meticulous and reassuring every step of the way. Once my orthodontic treatment was complete, I returned to Dr. Geoffrey for soft tissue grafting. I had been suffering from extreme sensitivity due to exposed roots, but thanks to his skillful work, the sensitivity is now completely gone. He also used laser treatment to gently reshape my gums, enhancing both the health and aesthetics of my smile. Finally, Dr. Marina installed beautiful veneers that gave my teeth a flawless, snow-white finish. Her attention to detail and artistic approach made all the difference in completing my transformation. Thanks to the incredible team at Bensonhurst Dental, I now have a healthy, confident, and truly stunning smile. They didn’t just improve my teeth—they changed how I feel about myself every day. If you’re looking for top-quality dental care, personalized treatment, and results you’ll love, I wholeheartedly recommend Bensonhurst Dental!

Bensonhurst Dental has been my go to general dental and cosmetic dental doctors since high school. You're not going to find anything like this place almost anywhere in NY. Not only do that have a high tech lab upstairs to custom-make on-site dental cosmetics, which they work with hand in hand to ensure perfect size color and fitness (don't overlook this!), but the team consists of a family of specialists. From Danny who specializes in full mouth restorations and custom veneers, to his father Alex who is an oral surgeon expert as far as root canals and the latest in laser dentistry with expensive modern high tech on-site equipment, and Marina with the motherly touch who ensures client satisfaction and who has an incredible eye for cosmetic perfection and detail. But beyond these for dentists, who can service the complete full range of dental services and all often work together on one patient, there's also a full staff of dental hygienists, whitening experts, assistants, front desk staff. The place does not cut corners on manpower. And they're fully renovated as of this year, the place is gorgeous and everything is brand new and up to date. I've been very proactive about my oral health since I neglected my teeth during graduate school. They brought me back to full oral health from new crowns to fillings and helped me avoid a near certain root canal. I now come here every 3-4 months for a cleaning, so I don't have to undergo the damage I went through while neglecting to see a dentist for 2 years. I give this place the highest 5 stars I've ever given a service professional, and I cannot emphasize how blessed I've been to have Bensonhurst Dental care, and how much of a vocal fan you will be if you come here for any dental or cosmetic work. To sum it up in 1 sentence: they really care. Thank you to the team for all your hard work. You have one big fan here

I have to admit that over the years my dentist and I have tried many different ways to eliminate the staining in my teeth. Ultimately I decided to give laser whitening a whirl, and I went in with no expectations so that I could avoid disappointment. Being that I have always been a little scared of the dentist, I was relieved when I met the person who would be taking care of me. She thoroughly explained the entire process helping me to become at ease with what was about to happen. After the procedure, I was amazed at the looks on everyone’s faces as it seemed to work. They finally handed me a mirror and I was finally convinced that I should have done this a long time ago. After all was said and done, I left with some parting gifts and a new smile. Both friends and family immediately noticed I had done something (without my saying so) and definitely reassured me that Bensonhurst Dental Care did a fantastic job. Thank you very much for the work and a special thank you to Valerie who pretty much held my hand through everything.

Hello everyone, I would like to highlight the brilliant work of Dr. Geoffrey, who performed the installation of two implants on my lower jaw for me. I lost 2 teeth a long time ago and unfortunately at that time no one informed me that it is necessary to install dental implants as soon as possible, before the bone tissue began to decrease. Now I know all this and much more about teeth and caring for them, thanks to the Bensonhurst Dental team. My greatest fear was that I had lost too much bone tissue. The Bensonhurst Dental team took care of me. Dr. Geoffrey, a periodontist, examined the bone tissue and assured me that we would be able to build up bone tissue and install dental implants. Dr. Marina, a specialist in cosmetic dentistry, and Dr. Nick, an orthodontist, recommended starting with orthodontic treatment, because due to the absence of several chewing teeth, the remaining teeth began to move and tilted so that there was not enough space for installing implants and crowns. Time flies and I will soon finish my orthodontic treatment, and a few months ago we were able to install dental implants, a couple of weeks ago we installed gum formers and very soon we will start work on installing crowns. But I am not going to stop there, because teeth need to be taken care of constantly, a healthy, beautiful smile makes us attractive and young. I can't wait until we finish the ortho treatment and install the implants crowns. After that, it is necessary to do a good cleaning of the teeth and I think to do whitening! Learn from other people's mistakes and choose good dentists!

As a practicing oral and maxillofacial surgeon, I am no stranger to routine dental care. I am not the most easily impressed type and even I will tell you that the comprehensive dental team at Bensonhurst Dental Care deserves top rating. The team is led by Dr Alex Rubinstein, Dr Marina Rubinstein and Dr Daniel Rubinstein. The organization is brilliantly complemented by the office manager, Vera and the hygienist, Valerie; not to mention the friendly and enthusiastic front desk and assistant staff. In the age of insurance and volume dentistry, Bensonhurst Dental Care group manages to return to basics and slow things down for the patient. Treatment is done by the book; just as it was thought in dental school. Records are collected with appropriate radiographs and CLINICAL PHOTOS! Oral cancer screen is performed on the first visit as part of the initial examination. Valerie, who performs hygiene, is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and has excellent hands (compliment which I will not dispense lightly) The team is clearly well versed in the latest technology which spans the use of the newest dental restorative materials, endodontic treatment, imaging and data technology as well as judicious use of dental lasers. As a professional, I certainly admire a health care organization which will take the time to ensure patient's comfort and education while providing the cutting edge dental care. For a discriminating dental patient who is willing to invest his valuable time toward an excellent experience and improved dental health, I would strongly endorse Bensonhurst Dental Care.
