• Lower part of the tongue (Ventral surface of the tongue)
• Floor of the mouth.
• Gums are also susceptible to white lesions and patches.
• Cheek mucosa (inner portion of cheek)

The mucosal membrane in the oral cavity is soft and sensitive. The use of laser technology to treat white spots has the following advantages :-
1. PRECISE TREATMENT : Laser treatment is very accurate, precise, and reliable. The method only targets the affected areas of the oral mucosa and ensures that the teeth other structures remain safe.
2. NON-INVASIVE : The patient does not experience trauma or excessive pain during the treatment i.e Its comparatively PAINLESS
3. BLOOD FREE & NO DISCOMFORT : As opposed to conservative treatments, Laser treatment does not results in very mild bleeding or swelling.
4. TISSUE FRIENDLY : Laser is a very flexible and versatile treatment which is a highly suitable procedure for the soft oral mucosa.
5. LESS FOLLOWUP : The follow up visits to the dentist's office will be few in number as the area heals rapidly.
1. LESS DISCOMFORT : The oral wound after the laser treatment is characterized by a smaller contraction of the tissue when compared to scalpel surgeries.
2. LESS TISSUE DAMAGE : During excision or cutting, the contraction and tissue loss occur in order to ensure that the wound is approximated round the edges.
3. BLOOD FREE : Blood flow stoppage and mild scarring along with wound sterilization will be the other benefits of laser treatment.
4. FASTER RECOEVRY : Recovery with tissue growth will result within 3 to 4 weeks with negligible chances of reoccurrence.
