Laser desensitization in Langley, BC
Laser desensitization is a treatment option that may be considered for selected types of tooth sensitivity after the cause is assessed. It is not a substitute for treating decay, cracks or infection. At Ethos Dental Studio in Walnut Grove, Langley, we discuss conventional measures and whether laser treatment has a role.
Start by understanding what your sensitivity is telling you.
Understanding your options
Your care, considered.
Sensitivity can arise from exposed root surfaces, enamel wear, decay, cracks or other conditions. We assess the cause first and may recommend home-care changes, a desensitizing product, restorative care or other treatment instead.

Your laser desensitization questions.
Good care starts with a conversation. Here are a few things you might be wondering.
Is laser care suitable for every sensitive tooth?
No. The underlying cause must be assessed first. A cavity, fracture or infection may require a different treatment.
Will the sensitivity disappear permanently?
A permanent result cannot be guaranteed. Response varies, and further care or changes in daily habits may be needed.
How do I find out if laser desensitization is right for me?
Start with an assessment. We review your concerns and health history, explain the findings and discuss suitable options or referral before recommending treatment.
What will treatment cost, and will insurance or CDCP cover it?
Fees and coverage depend on your assessed needs and benefits. We provide a written estimate after assessment; your insurer or CDCP determines coverage, and a patient balance may remain.
