What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry is a type of dental treatment that uses a laser beam to perform a variety of procedures in the mouth. The laser used in dental procedures is a highly concentrated beam of light that is directed onto the affected area of the mouth. The energy from the laser can be used to cut and shape soft tissue, remove decay from teeth, and even whiten teeth.
Laser dentistry is becoming increasingly popular because it is often less invasive than traditional dental procedures, meaning that there is less pain and discomfort for the patient. Additionally, the use of lasers in dentistry can often reduce bleeding and swelling, resulting in faster healing times.
What are the Uses of laser dentistry ?
Gum disease treatment: Lasers can be used to remove diseased tissue from the gums and help promote the growth of healthy tissue.
Root canal therapy: Lasers can be used to clean out and disinfect the root canals of infected teeth.
Cavity treatment: Lasers can be used to remove decay from teeth and prepare the affected area for a filling.
Teeth whitening: Lasers can be used to activate the bleaching agent in a tooth whitening treatment.
What are the Benefits of laser dental treatment?
1. Reduced pain: Laser dental treatment is often less painful than traditional dental treatments because it is less invasive. The laser can be used to remove decay or perform other procedures without the need for a drill, which can cause discomfort and pain.
2. Faster healing time: Laser dental treatment can result in faster healing times because it can be less damaging to the surrounding tissue. This means that there is often less swelling and bleeding, and the patient may be able to return to normal activities sooner.
3. Reduced risk of infection: Lasers can be used to sterilize the treatment area, reducing the risk of infection.
4. Precision: Lasers are very precise and can be used to target specific areas of the mouth without damaging nearby tissue. This precision can result in better outcomes and fewer complications.
5. Versatility: Laser dental treatment can be used for a variety of procedures, including cavity removal, gum disease treatment, and teeth whitening.
6. Reduced anxiety: For some patients, the use of lasers in dental treatment can be less intimidating than traditional methods, reducing anxiety and fear associated with dental procedures.
When the laser dental treatment not indicated?
1. Pregnancy: The use of lasers during pregnancy has not been extensively studied, so it is generally not recommended.
2. Pacemakers: Patients with pacemakers or other electronic devices may not be able to undergo laser dental treatment because the laser can interfere with the device.
3. Certain medications: Some medications can increase the risk of complications during laser dental treatment. It is important to discuss any medications you are taking with your dentist before undergoing laser treatment.
4. Active infection: Laser dental treatment may not be appropriate for patients with an active infection because the laser can spread the infection to surrounding areas.
5. Certain medical conditions: Patients with certain medical conditions, such as cancer, epilepsy, or autoimmune disorders, may not be able to undergo laser dental treatment.
6. Certain dental conditions: Laser dental treatment may not be appropriate for patients with certain dental conditions, such as deep cavities or extensive gum disease.
It is important to discuss your medical history and any concerns you may have with your dentist before undergoing laser dental treatment to determine if it is the right choice for you.
