Habit Therapy Pediatric Dentistry Frisco, Texas
Laser dental is one way we as pediatric specialists is to make our patients more comfortable and to offer the best treatment modalities available. Sheer Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is proud to be one of the pioneers in using Laser Dentistry technology in Frisco, TX. The laser has proven to be safe and effective for many surgical procedures, including soft tissue (gums/frenums) procedures without the use of a scalpel (blade).
Dr. Shir uses this laser technology to release tongue and lip ties (through a procedure called frenectomy) when it’s necessary to improve speech, lactation, and other oral-related issues. Patients that are undergoing orthodontic treatment occasionally are referred to us when they experience gum swelling and overgrowth so Dr. Shir can recontour their gums with the laser. This procedure is called a gingivectomy. Although most patients requiring these soft tissue procedures are referred to us by other specialists, Dr. Shir will perform her own assessment before we schedule the surgery. The advantages of the laser either in hard or soft tissues are less pain, faster recovery, minimal swelling, and no stitches!

What diet and nutritional advice can be offered for building strong teeth?
Experts agree that children need food from all the major food groups to grow properly and stay healthy. Too many carbohydrates, sugars (for example, from cake, cookies, candies, milk, fruit juice, and other sugary foods and beverages), and savory foods and starches (for example, pretzels and potato chips) can cause tooth decay. How long carbohydrates remain on the teeth is the main culprit that leads to tooth decay. Read more
