Laser treatment in dental care is a modern, minimally invasive technique used for various dental procedures. It involves the use of focused light beams (lasers) to treat soft and hard tissues in the mouth. Here’s a quick overview of what it is, its benefits, and common applications:
What is Laser Dental Treatment?
Laser dental treatment uses specific wavelengths of light energy to interact with tissues. It can precisely cut or shape tissue, making it an effective tool for both surgical and cosmetic dental procedures.
Benefits of Laser Dentistry
- Less Pain & Discomfort: Reduces the need for drills and anesthesia.
- Faster Healing Time: Minimally invasive with reduced bleeding and swelling.
- Lower Risk of Infection: Lasers sterilize the area during treatment.
- Precise Treatment: Targets only the damaged area, preserving more healthy tissue.
- Quieter Procedures: No high-pitched sounds like traditional drills.
