Contact UsWhat Are Cold Sores?
Cold sores are blisters on the lips near the mouth. The blisters are usually swollen, inflamed, and red and can be uncomfortable. The lesions can appear independently or in little clusters, and when they break, a transparent fluid leaks out and the blister will scab over. Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus, also called HSV, and may appear in or around the mouth. The condition is highly infectious and can be transmitted quite easily by touch. Our team can diagnose and treat cold sores with minimally invasive laser treatments. Schedule an appointment with our Las Vegas, NV office today if you need relief.

What Can I Expect During A Cold Sore Treatment?
Cold sores typically go away on their own within a few days. However, if they are noticeable on the lip or close to the mouth, it can be painful and embarrassing. Our team at Elegant Smiles can help speed up the healing process through advanced laser treatment. The laser goes straight to the cause of the problem, targeting the virus. If caught before the blister stage, laser treatment can accelerate healing without harming surrounding tissue or coming in contact with your skin. This type of therapy is ideal for those who frequently suffer from cold sores. For immediate relief, contact our team at Elegant Smiles in Las Vegas, NV to maintain your oral health.
Elegant Smiles Reviews
Dr.Phan and Ricky did a great job today my filling was fast and painless! Thank you
The best dentist I’ve ever been to. I had a 3-4 year gap from my last dentist so I needed some fillings tbh. They walked me through everything so smoothly, showing me each tooth and areas of concern and laid out game plan to move forward. Had my first fillings done here this week and they were so much more precise than any other dentist I’ve gone too, and they made sure that I didn’t feel any pain whatsoever. I appreciate the doctors and all of their staff is top notch too. Most people are scared to go to the dentist but this office made it so comfortable it eased my nerves about everything. They play a TV during your care and their chairs are part massage chair if you’re into that. Extra bonus
If you ever need dental work done, I highly recommend Elegant Smiles. The staff is amazing. Doctor Phil Pham, Ricky, Susanna and Shante explain every detail and will answer all your questions. Any veterans like myself get a referral from the VA and go there. Thanks for everything.
I only pretend to be a tough guy on deployments — when I'm at the dentist I'm a big baby... Nobody likes going to the dentist, Elegant Smiles knows this. They've done a great job making this place look and feel more like a high-end spa than a dentist office. Seriously, it's the nicest dentist office I've ever been to, the first time I walked in I thought I was in the wrong place... Beautiful atmosphere, modern tech, relaxing music, and friendly people — worlds different than the other little-shops-of-horror the VA has sent me to before. And what's even nicer than the "spa" are the people. The staff I met (Shante, Susanna, and the treatment team Dr. Phan and Ricky), are all super nice, patient, understanding, and answered my million nervous questions. Like many people, I'll never look forward to going to the dentist or people using power drills inside my mouth… But when I can't put it off any longer and it absolutely has to be done, Elegant Smiles is the only place I'm going back to.
Shantae that is in the front office is absolutely amazing. Her customer service is beyond exceptional compared to most dental offices I have been too. Her sense of urgency when dealing with the VA exceeds the standards. Dealing with the VA can be a headache, but she reassured me that she would handle everything for me. The turn around for treatment was quicker than the average. Ricky was my dental assistance also exceeding the standards. I do not believe I have ever had someone as thorough as he is. From the beginning to the end, he reassured me , and simply walked me through everything that he was doing. I highly recommend this dental clinic. Might I add the dentist ONLY see one to two patients with the allotted time.
