Frequently Asked Questions
-
Laser dentistry uses focused light energy instead of metal instruments like drills and scalpels. This technology allows dentists to work with high precision on both soft and hard tissues, offering an alternative to conventional tools for many procedures.
-
-
Many laser procedures are completed more efficiently because the laser targets only the affected area. This targeted approach often reduces the need for extensive preparation or multiple adjustments, which can translate to shorter appointment times for patients.
-
-
Yes — because laser energy is highly precise, it generally causes less disturbance to surrounding tissues. For many patients, this means reduced sensory irritation and a more pleasant experience compared to the noise and sensations associated with drills.
-
-
The mechanism of dental lasers promotes more conservative tissue interaction, which can help lessen trauma to the mouth during treatment. This often results in faster healing and less irritation afterward compared to more invasive traditional methods.
-
-
Yes. Beyond clinical treatments, dental lasers are also used in cosmetic procedures such as gum reshaping and in adjunctive roles like activating certain whitening treatments — making them a versatile tool in both function and aesthetics.
