Implementing advanced technology into common dental procedures and treatments has helped improved dental health care in several different ways. For instance, digital and 3D imaging makes it easier to see the earliest signs of dental issues and address them before any serious damage occurs. It also helps your dentist design and perform a variety of procedures with increased precision. Likewise, the use of an advanced, specially calibrated laser can help us accomplish highly lifelike results in a more comfortable and minimally invasive manner, which can provide several important advantages.
Benefiting from Dental Lasers
- More esthetically pleasing results – Many dental laser procedures are those that have been traditionally performed with a scalpel, such as gum contouring and other minor oral surgery procedures. Compared to the scalpel, the high-precision laser can complete most procedures with highly accurate cosmetic results.
- Less discomfort during your procedure – In addition to esthetic results, laser treatment can also be performed with a higher level of comfort than scalpel-based treatments. The concentrated laser substantially reduces trauma to surrounding tissues, which means your procedure and healing process are much more comfortable.
- More convenient and successful healing – Dental lasers rely on concentrated heat, which promotes a faster and more successful healing process that begins as soon as the laser touches your oral tissues. In most cases, sutures are not even needed following treatment, which makes the healing process faster.
