West Friendship dentist, Dentist in West Friendship, MD

Gone are the days of large amalgam (metal) fillings in children and adults. With our new high tech laser, we can find tiny amounts of decay beginning in teeth sooner than ever before. Then, we may choose to use our exciting new air abrasion unit to painlessly wipe away the decay in some cases without the use of injections or drills or large fillings. We're one of the few practices in the area to use these high tech devices to find and wipe away small cavities. At Howard County Family Dentistry our patients are impressed with the benefits, which include:

• Decreased or no need for Novocain
• Reduced risk of infection
• Decreased sensitivity
• Less time in the dental chair
• Less bleeding
• Less post-operative discomfort
• Less noise than the dental drill
