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.

I'll definitely recommend this office to all my family and friends. Dr. Phan and Dr. Huynh are passionate about dentistry and it shows. Excited for my next cleaning!
I was always afraid of the dentist but Dr. Phan and Dr. Huynh really changed my perspective. Now I get excited for my cleanings!! Also the staff is very nice and polite :)
I like the fact that I can easily get appointments and most importantly appointments are on time (never have to wait long in the sitting room). Dr Phan is very thorough. My dental health is on the right track now. Will be recommending him to family and friends.
Always have a great experience here. Dr. Phan is very pleasant, caring, and takes time to explain everything and get all my questions answered without it feeling rushed. The front desk is really friendly and patient. Really great staff and doctor!
