Subject: Advantages in laser dentistryLaser dentistry offers patients several important benefits, yet only about 5% of dental offices currently have the equipment to perform laser procedures. As patients realize the advantages of laser treatments in oral health as well as in cosmetic dentistry, the number of offices offering laser dentistry is sure to rise significantly.
Laser Dentistry Offers Important BenefitsLaser dentistry is often less painful and invasive than traditional methods. For example, a patient could opt for laser surgery to avoid anesthesia during some procedures. Patients with cosmetic or oral health issues, especially those with low pain tolerance or a fear of dental procedures, may favor laser dentistry over surgery or other treatments.
Other benefits of laser dentistry include:
*Most dental procedures performed by laser do not necessitate the use of sutures, where traditional surgical methods would require them to control bleeding and promote healing.
*Lasers are precise; therefore, damage to the surrounding tissue is rare and usually minimal.
*The high-energy beam helps the blood to clot, resulting in less bleeding and discomfort. It also promotes cellular healing, leading to faster recovery times.
*The laser beam sterilizes the area the dentist is working on, which helps to prevent post-operative infection.
Dentists appreciate the accuracy, speed and control of laser treatments. They can perform more delicate or precise procedures quicker and with less patient discomfort. Because it is a relatively new technology, laser dentistry is improving and becoming more affordable every day. It is expected that as costs drop and demand increases, laser technology will soon be available in most dental offices.
