Laser Dental Treatment

 


A large range of oral health conditions, from tooth decay to discolored teeth, can be treated with laser dentistry.

During dental operations, lasers will offer your dentist greater control. They can help decrease pain, reduce recovery times and mitigate problems. Treatments of laser dentistry may be carried out solely with the assistance of lasers or may require the use of other dental instruments.

What is dentistry with laser?

A relatively recent characteristic of dentistry is lasers. Dental lasers use directed beams of light during restorative procedures to extract or reshape tissue, cure bonding agents and activate bleaching agents during whitening of the teeth.

To become proficient in the use of lasers, dentists need to complete specific training. For various procedures, dentists who use laser treatments have a thorough understanding of how the equipment operates, how to use it safely, and how to select the correct lasers and wavelengths.

Laser dentistry can help boost treatment results because your dentist can have accurate control over power output and exposure times. Lasers, as well as the risk of infections, can help minimize bleeding and swelling. In certain cases, during the operation, they can help prevent healthy teeth and gum tissue from being damaged.

The need for dental drills may be reduced or minimized by laser treatments, which can also make you feel more at ease.

What is treatable with laser dentistry?

Lasers are also integrated into many restorative therapies and cosmetic dental procedures.

It is possible to use laser dentistry to treat:
  • Tooth Decay - Lasers, when preparing a tooth for a filling, can help cut and shape tooth enamel more effectively than dental drills. To sustain a filling attachment to the tooth, lasers may also be used. During a root canal procedure or to remove decayed tissue.
  • Wisdom Teeth Affected - To expose wisdom teeth that have only partially erupted or are trapped (impacted) in the gum, lasers can help cut away gum tissue.
  • Gum Disease -  With minimal effects on the healthy tissue, diseased or inflamed gum tissue may be cut away. Lasers can also help to extract plaque by exposing the roots of teeth.
  • Sensitive Teeth - To decrease the tooth's sensitivity to hot and cold food and drinks, dental lasers can help seal tubules in tooth roots.
  • Teeth that are stained or discoloured - Lasers are often used to trigger the bleaching agent in professional teeth whitening procedures and speed up the whitening process.
  • Mouth Ulcer - Lasers can be used to help relieve discomfort or to extract tissue for a biopsy if you have a chronic ulcer or lesion in your mouth.

What advantages would the use of laser dentistry have?

Compared to conventional approaches, there are many benefits to using lasers in cosmetic and restorative procedures. The pros and cons of laser procedures can be explained by your dentist so that you can make an informed decision.

Laser dentistry can help prevent stitches or anaesthesia. In addition, it will support:
  • Shorten the duration and recovery time of treatment
  • Regeneration of tissue guide
  • Reduces anxiety and stress
  • Lowers the risk of infection
  • Minimize bleeding during surgery and swelling
Laser dentistry, however, has some limitations.

You usually can't use lasers on teeth with fillings, for example. For large-scale restorative treatments, such as preparing teeth for crowns or bridges, they often appear to be less successful.

Due to the expense of the supplies, laser treatments often appear to be more costly than normal dental treatments.
