Cold Laser Therapy

TMJ Pain Treatment Using Cold Laser Therapy

We have been providing cold laser therapy, (aka low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation) in our office for many years as part of an overall treatment plan to help provide pain relief to our patients. This is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-intensity laser light to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and decrease inflammation. Sessions take only 10 to 15 minutes, and they are safe and painless!

How We Perform It

As part of the initial consultation, we will be gathering information about your concerns, discussing your medical history and determining if cold therapy makes sense as part of your overall treatment plan.

If it makes sense for your treatment, we will seat you in one of the operatories and assure you are comfortable. The targeted area is cleaned, and we provide you with protective eyewear to shield your eyes from laser exposure. Next, one of our trained team members will use a handheld device that emits low-level laser light to provide treatment.

Again, the treatment is painless, and patients usually feel nothing or may experience a slight warming sensation. Since cold laser therapy is non-invasive and gentle, there is no downtime! Patients can return to their daily activities immediately after the session.

Key Benefits of Cold Laser Therapy

Pain Management/Pain Relief

Cold laser therapy helps to alleviate chronic jaw pain, associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. We also use this therapy following some of the dental procedures that we perform in our office such as extractions, root canals and gum surgery.

Accelerated Healing

It enhances the healing of soft tissues, like the gums, after procedures like periodontal therapy because it stimulates cell regeneration to help reduce recovery times.

Reduced Inflammation

The therapy can help reduce inflammation in tissues, which is beneficial to dental conditions such as gum inflammation. We also can use it after an implant is placed or after a deep cleaning to minimize inflammation and accelerate the return to normal tissue function.

    Beautiful experience. My third child, was my first with ties. Dr. Kaplan took his time showing me images of my sons ties and explaining them to me so I understood them more. He also made the atmosphere very comfortable! We had all 3 ties released (tongue, lip, and cheek) done in about 10 minutes. Dr. Kaplan checked in with me about 5 minutes after the procedure and explained everything to me about follow up appointments with lactation and chiro and how to massage my babies mouth post-op. Highly recommend for infant tie issues!

    Dr. David is by far one of the most compassionate dentists I have ever met. Dr. David and her team have a thirst for knowledge and are constantly furthering their education. I would highly recommend the TMJ & Sleep Centre of New England if you have any TMJ/Sleep needs.

    I have only been for initial exam and consultation, so this review is for that. I love the office. They have great technology and a nice ambiance if you can believe it. Pretty rare to find a dentist with nice views but I had beautiful trees to look at outside the window while I sat in the chair. The tech and dentist were so caring and really listened to me and took their time to make me feel at ease. I have had some less than savory and even traumatic experiences at other dentists , I can say that I feel very comfortable and trusting with Dr David. I think she is a brilliant doctor who really cares about people and looks at the whole picture , not just your teeth. I’m happy I found her and ready to start my treatment plan. This is by far not the cheapest dentist but I only have one set of teeth, so trusting myself to the best.
