Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Dentistry
Question: What issues can dental lasers address?
Answer: We can address multiple esthetic problems and oral health concerns. For example, we can use lasers to in conjunction with a bleaching agent to brighten teeth and remove stains. We can also correct the gum line, removing excessive tissue that can make teeth appear small or uneven and improving your smile’s overall appearance. We can remove small amounts of tissue to lengthen the crown in order to repair teeth with a restoration. We can also provide relief for canker and cold sores using advanced laser technology. Finally, lasers can provide a non-surgical option for removing infected tissue and managing gum disease, helping you avoid periodontitis (a major cause of adult tooth loss).
Question: Will treatment be comfortable?
Answer: Yes! The lasers rarely require any anesthesia or sedation, meaning the procedure is very comfortable. Patients also experience a significantly reduced risk of infection and bleeding afterward. We can target areas of the gums and teeth with precision as well.
Question: What happens after the procedure ends?
Answer: We will provide detailed instructions for what to eat and how to care for your smile as it heals. Fortunately, the lasers mean there are no sutures, which makes the healing process faster and far more comfortable.
