Lasers help with a number of dental treatments. When using a laser, your dentist may not need to use a drill or administer anesthesia in some procedures, allowing you to enjoy a more relaxed dental experience.
A laser is an instrument that produces a very narrow beam of light energy. When laser light comes in contact with tissue or tooth structure, it causes a reaction which can remove or shape that tissue.
Lasers can be used in dentistry as a safe and effective treatment for many procedures, including:
Laser procedures can be more precise, reduce symptoms and healing times associated with traditional therapies, reduce the amount of bacteria in both diseased gum tissue and in tooth cavities, and control bleeding during surgery.

When my dentist retired I was worried about finding a new one. I had my dentist for years and he knew me well. I have had TMJ surgery in the past and it’s not easy for me to get stuff done, even cleanings. However Dr Breen and his staff at Elgin Dental were GREAT! They were friendly and made me feel very welcome. Tammy was so caring about how I was doing while she cleaned my teeth. I needed to see a specialist as well and even then, the specialist needed some X-rays from Dr Breen and it was sent immediately. I was very pleased with everyone! They even explained all my costs after insurance. I highly recommend Dr Breen. It’s nice to know I found another great dentist after mine retired. Oh and Sheryl was so helpful and caring from the moment I walked in there.
I’ve had a cleaning, exam, crown and filling. Everything was done perfectly. I highly recommend Dr Breen and his staff.
My experience has been the best. The professionalism and friendliness is amazing. I got the results I was looking for and all my questions were answered. I recommend this place 10/10
