LASER stands for “light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation”. This laser light produces a narrow and focused light which creates reaction when it hits tissue, allowing it to remove or shape the tissue.
Laser dentistry potentially offers a more comfortable treatment option for a number of dental procedures involving hard or soft tissue or shape the tissue.
Common Procedures include:
- Treating a “gummy smile.”
- Crown lengthening
- Treating tongue frenulum attachment.
- Removing soft tissue folds.
Laser dentistry offers better results with reduced treatment duration. Patients will feel less discomfort during the procedure and will usually not require more invasive treatments.
