Lasers have taken dentistry by storm, offering a slew of benefits for our patients. At Dee for Dentist, we strive to supply each person with gentle, comfortable, and safe care. With laser technology, this has never been easier.
Laser Dentistry Explained
Lasers revolve around highly focused light beams, which are a non-invasive alternative to scalpels and drills. In fact, lasers are becoming commonplace in dental facilities, prompting us to adopt them into our practice as well.
Lasers can target either hard or soft tissue, so there’s never a concern for affecting surrounding tissues. This limits surgical complications while lowering recovery time. So, if your dentist is removing decay from your tooth, the nearby gums are in no danger.
What Can Lasers Correct?
Many folks don’t realize just how many conditions are treatable by dental laser technology. Here are treatments we offer with lasers:
- Fillings
- Gingivectomy
- Frenectomy
- Fibroma removal
- Snoring relief
Perks of Laser Dentistry
The main cause of dentophobia, or fear of the dentist, is the anticipation of pain. This assumption is often the reason for people allowing their oral health to deteriorate. Luckily, the laser often replaces the tools that cause such anxieties and stress. In turn, laser use supplies an easier and more comfortable experience.
Here’s how lasers are beneficial:
- No anesthesia needed
- No vibrations
- Lower risk of bacteria and virus transmission
- Advanced gum treatments
- Quicker treatments and recoveries
- Teeth whitening
- COVID-19 aerosol reduction
- Canker Sore Treatment
- Gum Contouring
- Gum Depigmentation
