WHY OFFERING LASER DENTISTRY CAN IMPROVE YOUR PRACTICE

Derek Seymour • Nov 07, 2019

If you wish to improve your dental practice, utilizing laser technology can be a great way to make that happen! That’s because laser dentistry can greatly improve the quality of the care that you offer patients, and it can be used to treat certain dental conditions, perform oral surgery, and whiten patients’ teeth.

LASER TECHNOLOGY MAKES ORAL SURGERY MORE PRECISE

In recent years, lasers have become commonly used by dentists and oral surgeons. Lasers produce intense heat that can be used to cut tissue. There are different types of surgical lasers available, which include products that are specifically designed for oral surgeries.

LASER TOOTH WHITENING IS HIGHLY EFFECTIVE

Lasers make it possible for teeth to be whitened more quickly than when chemical whitening is used alone. While laser whitening technology is typically used in conjunction with conventional methods of tooth whitening, the laser light will allow the chemicals used for the whitening of teeth to work much more quickly and effectively than they would otherwise. This can allow patients to get the perfect white smile they’re looking for much faster!

LASERS CAN BE USED TO TREAT GUM DISEASE AND TOOTH HYPERSENSITIVITY

Tooth hypersensitivity is a common condition, which can make it difficult to drink or eat anything that’s too hot or cold. Laser treatments have been effective for many people who suffer from this condition, and lasers also can be extremely useful in the treatment of gingivitis and other forms of gum disease.

HOW LONG HAVE LASERS BEEN USED BY DENTISTS?

Lasers have been used by dentists since 1989. However, while they have been approved for use in oral surgery, other uses of them have not yet been approved by the ADA. Despite this, lasers are now widely used in dentistry for many types of procedures.

Laser dentistry has become more sophisticated in recent years. In fact, modern surgical lasers that are used in dentistry allow for exceptionally fast healing times and can minimize patient discomfort. Additionally, some lasers that are currently used in oral surgery minimize patient discomfort to the point that local anesthesia is not needed for certain types of procedures!
