Light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation, or laser dental treatment, uses targeted light energy to treat issues with the hard and/or soft tissue of the mouth. The hard tissue refers to the teeth and the bone whilst the soft tissue refers to the gums. With much research and development in this field of dentistry, lasers can now be used in the prevention and treatment of tooth decay and gum disease, as well as other dental health issues.
Tooth decay and gum disease
Tooth decay and gum disease often requires extensive treatment. If tooth decay or gum disease are left unaddressed it can result in unpleasant symptoms, such as bleeding gums, toothache, sensitivity and wobbly teeth. As it progresses the symptoms will worsen with irreversible damage that can result in tooth loss, gum decay and bone decay. If you have been scared to visit the dentist Coorparoo then laser dental treatment is the answer for you. Laser dental treatment is minimally invasive allowing you to undergo dental treatment at your comfort and ease.
Why choose laser dentistry?
With laser dental treatment you can address your dental needs with your dentist Coorparoo without the need for anaesthetic or injections. This helps combat one of the biggest fears of the dentist which is injections in the mouth. Laser treatment requires no cutting or stitching which means that there is minimal or no bleeding. There is no need for drills so there is no pain or discomfort in the mouth. This means that there is no postoperative recovery time either, however eating soft foods for the next few days will prove more comfortable and better for your teeth. Lasers sterilise the area that they are treating which means there is little or no chance of infection either.
Laser dental treatment for sensitivity
Laser dental treatment can also be used in the treatment of sensitivity by sealing tubules on the root of the teeth. Sensitivity occurs because of the thinning of the enamel and this can affect your day-to-day life. It can affect your choice of food and drink, and patients have to avoid hot or cold food. Sensitivity can also cause toothache and even affect your ability to bite and chew. By addressing sensitivity with laser dental treatment you can improve your dental health and well-being.
