Laser Gum Treatment

The field of dentistry has experienced a significant transformation thanks to advancements in dental laser technology. This technology now offers a wide range of treatments for various dental issues, including tooth decay, periodontal disease, biopsies, oral lesions, restorative materials, and teeth whitening.

One notable advantage of dental lasers is their ability to combine laser energy with water and air. This allows for safe cutting and shaping of both soft and hard tissues in the mouth. By stimulating water molecules in the tooth, the laser enables precise cutting without the need for direct contact, heat, vibration, or pressure. This not only reduces discomfort during procedures but also decreases the reliance on dental anesthesia. Additionally, dental lasers help alleviate patient anxiety, especially for those who are nervous about dental treatments. They also aid in minimizing post-operative bleeding and swelling while preserving the integrity of healthy tooth structure during decay removal.

However, it is important to note that dental lasers may not be suitable for all dental procedures.
