What Is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry uses concentrated beams of light to treat various dental issues with precision and minimal discomfort. This advanced technology allows for more targeted procedures, often resulting in less pain, reduced bleeding, and faster healing times. Laser dentistry can be used for both soft tissue and hard tissue treatments, making it a versatile option for a wide range of dental procedures.
Benefits of Laser Dentistry
1. Minimally Invasive
With laser dentistry, many procedures can be performed with little to no need for drills or scalpels. This makes treatments less invasive, which means less discomfort during and after the procedure.
2. Faster Recovery
Since lasers minimize damage to surrounding tissues, patients typically experience faster healing times and reduced post-treatment discomfort.
3. Precision and Accuracy
Lasers allow for more precise treatment, which is particularly important in delicate areas like the gums. This precision can lead to better outcomes and a more comfortable experience for patients.
4. Reduced Risk of Infection
The laser's concentrated beam not only treats the targeted area but also sterilizes it, reducing the risk of infection and promoting faster healing.
Laser Dentistry Services at Wentworth Dental Clinic
1. Gum Disease Treatment
For patients with gum disease, laser dentistry offers a non-invasive option to treat infection and promote healing. The laser removes infected tissue and bacteria while promoting the regeneration of healthy tissue, all with minimal discomfort.
2. Cavity Detection and Treatment
Laser dentistry can be used to detect early signs of cavities and even treat cavities without the need for drilling. This method is gentler on your teeth, preserving more of the natural tooth structure.
3. Gum Reshaping
If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your gums, laser gum reshaping can sculpt and contour the gum line to give you a more balanced, aesthetic smile. This procedure is quick, with minimal bleeding and fast recovery.
4. Frenectomy
A frenectomy is a procedure to remove excess tissue, often under the tongue (for patients with tongue-tie) or between the upper front teeth. Using a laser, the frenectomy is a quick and painless procedure with very little recovery time.
