LASER in Dental Treatment

Dental Surgeon using lasers in dentistry have become expert at incorporating the state-of-the-art precision technology into a number of common and uncommon procedures

Benefits associated with laser dentistry Some laser dental procedures do not require anesthesia. No drill or needle for Restoration and also increased bond strength for Restoration. Infections are minimized because the high-energy light beam sterilizes the area being worked on. Using dental lasers may not require sutures. No needle for most of soft tissue procedures. Laser inhibiting blood loss because the high-energy light beam help in the clotting of exposed blood vessels. More rapid healing and reduced pain after soft tissue procedures Wounds heal faster and tissues can be regenerated. Damage to surrounding tissue is minimized. Reduces patient recovery time. Reduced post op sensitivity with Restoration. Children (kid) treated without needle or drill.

LASER DENTAL PROCEDURE

Teeth Whitening, Fluorisis : Dental lasers may be used to speed up the bleaching process associated with teeth whitening.

Gingival Dipigmentation Gingivectomy, gingivoplasty, crown lengthening, and other gum corrections : Dental lasers can reshape gum tissue and bone to expose healthier tooth structure.

Tongue-tie : Kids (Babies) unable to breast feed adequately due to limited tongue movement and tongue tied restricted or tight frenulum. A laser frenectomy is an ideal treatment for this doing without anesthesia or sutures and help to eliminate speech impediments.

Fibromas or Pappilomas :Removal of oral lesions such as fibromas or pappilomas, usually with topical anesthesia only

Benign Tumors : Dental lasers used for the painless and suture-free removal of benign tumors from the gums, palate, sides of cheeks and lips.

Biopsies : Dental lasers used for the Excisional and incisional biopsies

Tooth Sensitivity: Dental lasers may be used to seal tubules that are responsible for hot and cold tooth sensitivity.

Gummy smile improvement: Dental lasers reshape gum tissue to expose healthy tooth structure and improve the appearance of a gummy smile.

Nerve Regeneration: Photobiomodulation can be used to regenerate damaged nerves, blood vessels, and scars.

Sleep Apnea: A laser assisted uvuloplasty or laser assisted uvula palatoplasty (LAUP) procedure can be performed to reshape the throat and relieve the correlating breathing problems associated with sleep apnea.

Soft Tissue Folds (Epulis): Treatment of minor mouth and gum irritations, used for the painless and suture-free removal of soft tissue folds caused by ill-fitting dentures.

Temporomandibular Joint Treatment: A laser assisted to quickly reduce pain and inflammation of the temporomandibular joint.

Apthous Ulcer and Cold Sores : In case of apthous Ulcer and cold Sores Low intensity dental lasers reduce pain associated with cold sores and minimize healing time.

Dental lasers are not helpful in the replacement of old silver amalgam restoration.
