Laser Root Canal Treatment

How It Works

Our laser root canal treatment is performed using the PIPS(TM) procedure to chemically clean and debride the root canal system.  Using ER: YAG laser energy, we create photoacoustic shock waves that effectively clean the root canal system.

The PIPS procedure was developed by Dr. Enrico DiVito, along with his research team at Medical Dental Advanced Technologies Group, LLC; and with assistance from Dr. Mark Colonna.

Benefits of Laser Root Canal Treatment

Laser root canal treatment has less filing and more efficient cleaning in the root canals than conventional drilling.  This significantly reduces the time you spend in the dental chair, as well as the level of discomfort you experience.  In addition, you may find that you experience reduced anxiety during the process due to the lack of drilling sounds and vibration that exists in conventional treatment.

In addition to the in-chair benefits, patients will often experience significantly less post operative discomfort.
