Minimally invasive: We use minimally invasive treatments in order to minimize the risk of introducing bacteria into the bloodstream. The use of air abrasion techniques or waterlase preparation are often accomplished without the need for anesthetic, eliminating one of the sources of blood borne bacterial introduction.
