Laser Dentistry improves smiles in Portland, Maine

Laser dentistry has been gaining in popularity since the 1990's. Although it has become more common in recent years, the use of lasers still is limited to use by qualified cosmetic dentists such as Dr. Michael Bufo.

Dr. Bufo has practiced cosmetic dentistry in Maine since 1990, and opened Cosmetic Dentistry & TMJ in Scarborough, ME in 2004. As an LVI-trained dentist, Dr. Bufo is knowledgeable in the latest laser dentistry techniques and procedures, including gum contouring and periodontal therapy.

Lasers in cosmetic dentistry are commonly used to fix gummy smiles. Using a laser eliminates the need for cutting or suturing, which minimized bleeding and recovery time. The results are often dramatic, completely transforming the patient's smile.

In addition to laser gum contouring, Cosmetic Dentistry & TMJ offers an array of smile makeover procedures to patients in the Portland area, including porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, dental implants, migraine treatment, Invisalign orthodontics and more. If you live in Maine and you are unhappy with the look of your smile, please contact Dr. Michael Bufo to schedule a smile makeover consultation.
