At All Brite Dental, we use lasers extensively for cleanings, fillings, and gum disease treatment.
They allow for faster healing times and more predictable results with very little to no discomfort. Some dental procedures can even be done without an anesthetic! They truly are wonderful machines.
Both our Dearborn Dentists, and Brownstown Dental Office offer laser dentistry. We use two different lasers, one is the Epic laser (by Biolase ) primarily used by our hygienists who have been certified and trained to use these machines for gum detoxification and gum disease treatment.
The other is the Waterlase MD (by Biolase) which is used by the doctor to perform many types of fillings, gum sculpting, and other surgeries without shots!
Compared to the methods of traditional dentistry, this type of cleaning has many added benefits.
If you have ever been given a prescription for an antibiotic before a dental cleaning, then you know that sometimes bacteria can enter your bloodstream during cleaning and causes infections. Hard Smart Cleaning helps destroy bacteria before cleaning.
This is the first step in the deep cleaning process. The laser painlessly disinfects 99% of the bacteria under the gums before we start your second step…the scaling.
During scaling most people’s gums bleed which is due to little tears in the blood vessels that are inside your gum pocket. This tearing can allow the bacteria from your mouth to get into your blood stream! Our methods of cleaning make for a more “heart smart” cleaning by eliminating the bacteria beforehand!
When the Epic laser is used for Periodontal treatments, also known as “deep cleaning” or “gum disease treatment” the end results are reached with much less pain and quicker, as long as the patient is doing their part at home with proper hygiene.
Following scaling/root planing the epic laser is used to remove a thin layer of diseased tissue to allow for faster healing and for the gums to “tighten up.” In addition, the tool is bio stimulating to increase blood flow to the area for faster healing …..wow! This does cost extra because of the extra time spent in using the machine.
But with less bleeding, pain, and faster healing it is worth every penny!
The Waterlase allows for many small to medium size cavities to be removed without shots. It also decreases the chances of nerve death which is possible with any dental procedure. No extra charge!
All teeth are bio stimulated with the laser, before the filling, which allows not only for faster healing and less sensitivity but also a laser bonded filling which increases the strength of the filling by 50%! No extra charge!
If your teeth look short due to overgrown gums this laser can remove the excess gum tissue with little to no bleeding and in most cases without Shots and no pain after!!!
If you notice the edges of your front teeth looking jagged and rough and do not know how it happened…….WE DO! This usually requires expensive veneers that can cost thousands of dollars. In many cases, the laser allows restoring the original shape of the tooth at a fraction of the price and without shots!

LUZ ROBINSONDr Rafiq always explains what he's doing and why. He makes sure that I am comfortable and satisfied with what he's doing. Dr Rafiq is very skilled in performing dental procedures, such as laser procedures, fillings & crowns. I have been his patient since he opened his practice. Amber, the hygienist, performs "painless" teeth cleanings, which ensures you always keep your appointments, to prevent future problems from occurring. During cleanings, Dr Rafiq always stops in to greet you, perform an exam and expalins any dental problem options. The business office always explain any costs associate with any procedure and follow up with your insurance company to minimize you out of pocket costs. The entire staff @ All Bright Dental treats you like family!

Mike EmeryGreat dentist and hygienists.
Cari YieldingI love All Brite Dental. The hygienists are absolutely awesome and I've never had such a great cleaning. I have had issues with my gums and they have been life savers. It is difficult to get later and weekend appointments with work schedules, but they are always willing to put you on a waiting list and call me when something becomes available. Great customer service.
Jillian Vander PloegI had to find another dentist a few years back now, I was very concern about moving because I had been with my old dentist for over 20 years. To my wonderful surprise Dr Rafiq was so nice as well as very good . I felt comfortable from the beginning with her and the staff. Everyone is pleasant and very professional, I am truly happy with my decision to reach out to All Bright Dental.
