Healing is a key part of dental procedures. At DMD Dental, we offer photobiomodulation to promote tissue recovery and reduce inflammation.
What is Photo-biomodulation?
Photobiomodulation, or low-level laser therapy, uses light energy to promote tissue healing. It works by stimulating the mitochondria of the cells to repair and regenerate soft tissue. It uses only light-based energy, which triggers a healing response in the cells, similar to how sunlight promotes vitamin D synthesis.
What are the Benefits of Photobiomodulation?
Photobiomodulation is very gentle and tolerable, and it causes no tissue damage. It’s often recommended to help you heal after your procedure to ensure a better result by reducing inflammation and chances of infection. Finally, it harnesses your body’s inherent ability to repair itself, providing a better and more natural alternative to certain procedures for periodontitis.
What Can I Expect From Photobiomodulation?
Dr. Du Mond will assess your mouth and determine how photobiomodulation can support your oral health. Photobiomodulation produces no side effects or heat – Dr. Du Mond simply applies the light energy to your mouth, and once you’re fully treated, you can go about your day.
The Photobiomodulation Process and Beyond
Photobiomodulation requires no downtime or recovery. You can return to your normal brushing, eating, and drinking habits right away. Dr. Du Mond will check in to assess your results as well as give you an estimate of how often you should return for treatment.

Truly Life-Changing!
Looking for a new dental office since my previous dentist moved to Hawaii, and I came across an ad for DMD Dental as a new office to the area. I figured I would check them out and I’m happy I did. Booking an appointment was super easy, and they got me in quickly to see Dr. Du Mond for a cleaning. She was fantastic; so helpful, patient, and really took the time to listen to my concerns about a crown I’ve been putting off for a while. The entire staff was incredibly nice and helpful, making the visit smooth and comfortable. I’m thrilled to say I’ve just found my new dentist!! Highly recommend checking them out.
Exceeded My Expectations!
I had the best experience at DMD Dental! I went in for red light therapy and trigger point injections for my TMJ. Dr. Du Mond carefully examined my jaw, temples and back to source all of the tension related to my jaw clenching. The injections really helped! After my treatment, I relaxed in the red light therapy bed for a 10 minute session. I received so many compliments on my skin in the days following. I will definitely be back!
Beyond Impressed!
Dr. Erika and her office staff provided an outstanding experience during my dental visit. The team was warm, professional, and attentive from the moment I walked in. Dr. Erika’s expertise and attention to detail were impressive, and I felt completely at ease throughout the appointment. I’m extremely happy with the treatment I received and would confidently recommend DMD Dental to anyone looking for exceptional dental care.
