Overview

Laser therapy in dentistry provides patients with a more comfortable dental treatment experience. Using laser dentistry, your dentist is able to deliver a precise treatment that is more comfortable, quicker, and provides more stunning results.
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry is a minimally invasive option when you’re facing gum surgery, cavity treatment, or other oral issues. Dentists use lasers in a variety of procedures involving the inside of the mouth, be it to remove overgrown tissue, to reshape the gums, or to whiten teeth. Laser dentistry is often ideal for children who become anxious or afraid when having dental work done, as well.

There are two different types of laser dentistry: hard tissue and soft tissue. Hard tissue includes treatments such as cavity detection, dental fillings, and tooth sensitivity improvements. Soft tissue treatments include gum reshaping, gum surgery, and muscle attachment improvements.

Procedures such as removing benign oral tumors, regenerating nerves, overcoming sleep apnea, whitening teeth, and treating TMD are also considered laser dentistry treatments.

Benefits

There are several benefits to receiving laser therapy dental treatment.

Many laser treatments do not require anesthesia, and the recovery time is much quicker than with traditional treatment methods. Treatments are more comfortable. There is also less potential chance of bacterial infection because laser treatments are so precise.
