Laser Dentistry is quickly revolutionizing the way dental prcoedures are performed. Almost
everyone knows that apprehensive feeling of sitting
in the waiting room of the dentist’s office.
Hearing the whirl of the drills, it is almost
as if you can feel it drilling your own teeth.
For those that are weary of climbing into ‘the
chair’, laser dentistry may be a great alternative.
When used in any procedure, lasers distribute
energy in the form of light. Depending on the
procedure being performed, this energy is delivered
at different wavelengths and ultimately absorbed
by a target. The target is the area being treated,
and in dentistry, these targets can be gum tissue,
enamel, decay or whitening enhancers. Each target
is treated by absorbing these differing wavelengths
of light, and each procedure has a different laser
designed specifically for remedying the problem.
Laser dentistry is so revolutionary it alleviates
all the fears that traditional dentistry patients
have to endure.
Lasers are noiseless and the treatments are
much quicker than traditional dentist procedures.
Most only take a few minutes to complete, but
time is dependent on the condition of the tooth.
Laser dentistry is also virtually painless. Anesthesia
is not required but patients can request it if
needed. Bleeding and swelling are usually minimal,
and discomfort following the procedure is minuscule.
Patients treated by laser dentistry have found
that their cavities can be filled in minutes,
gum disease can be remedied quickly and painlessly,
and whitening has never been easier. Laser dentistry can finally be your answer to a healthier, whiter
smile.
