With laser dentistry, our team can take on minor and even serious concerns that impact your smile, including gum disease. These can offer a host of advantages over traditional scalpels and sutures. In today’s blog, your Dallas, TX, dentist talks about laser dentistry and how we use this to address cosmetic issues, and to even manage serious oral health threats like periodontal disease.
The Benefits of Advanced Technology
Dental lasers employ a concentrated beam of light that is specially calibrated to handle soft tissue concerns. Our team can use this to treat oral health concerns quickly and comfortably, with treatment only taking one visit. The lasers target areas with precision so there is no damage to healthy structures in our smile. The lack of scalpels and sutures also means the area heals quicker, with some returning to their normal routines after a day or two of rest. There is a reduced risk of bleeding, infection, and swelling, and in many cases the procedure requires little to no anesthesia. The technology offers a more comfortable and effective way to address a host of common oral health concerns.
Our Treatment Options
Our team can use the procedure to trims away diseased tissues so we can better manage periodontal disease, protecting your smile from worsening pain or even the risk of tooth loss. In the process, the laser also destroys pockets of harmful oral bacteria to safeguard your gum health. If you have a smile that shows off too much gum tissue, we can trim away the excess ones and reshape the gum line in the process to improve overall symmetry. The technology can help in the treatment of decay and infection by destroying harmful oral bacteria and also helps shrink cold and canker sores so they heal much faster than they would otherwise. For many, this can address cosmetic and general oral health issues to safeguard your oral health and help your smile stay strong!
