Whenever possible, a dental laser (in most cases without injections) is used for decay removal to preserve tooth structure and make treatment more comfortable. This technology can also be utilized to reduce discomfort and speed healing for a variety of other conditions.
Specializing in the use of dental lasers, a completely revolutionary instrument, Dr. Burman is able to perform many procedures with:
* Less or no need for needles
* Less stress, anxiety, fear
* Minimal discomfort to no pain
* Little or no bleeding
* No vibration
* No whining sound
* No annoying particles during procedures (like in air abrasion dentistry which other dentists state is the “drilless drill”)
* Faster healing
* Reduced post-operative complications
* Killing of dangerous bacteria in the mouth
* More conservative preparation of the tooth allowing less tooth structure damage

Dr. Burman is the area’s leading laser expert! He is one of approximately 50 certified doctors in the State of New Jersey utilizing laser technology in practice for both decay removal and soft tissue surgeries. He uses both the Erbium: YAG laser (for decay removal) and the Nd: YAG laser (soft tissue procedures) and has seen excellent results with this technology, especially with children and adults hesitant about injections and use of the traditional drill. Dr. Burman was a clinical investigator in the FDA trials for the Erbium: YAG laser!
