Lasers have been used in dentistry since 1989 to treat a number of dental problems. Dental laser treatment, aka laser dentistry, significantly reduces pain sensation. Procedure is performed without touching the tooth during treatment. That’s why people prefer dental laser treatment.
In dental laser treatment, it is possible to reach the deepest caries. Thanks to this treatment method:
- Patients feel less pain,
- The treatment process is shortened,
- More successful results are obtained.
Sterilisation is applied in the areas where laser treatment is applied. Thus, problems such as infection and caries are minimised. In addition, most of the procedures are performed with little or no anaesthesia. Thus, the recovery time is also accelerated.
During the laser treatments, two types of lasers are usually used. Soft tissue lasers and hard tissue lasers. Both of these lasers have varying wavelengths. They are appropriate for the right cutting or a certain type of tissue. The reason behind different types of lasers is that different kinds of tissues absorb different wavelengths of lights.
Considerations
Dental laser treatment, previously having limited use, has a wide range of applications such as:
- Filling,
- Cleaning of caries,
- Tooth-bone shaping operations,
- Root canal treatments,
- Herpes-shaft treatments,
- Desensitisation of sensitive teeth,
- Teeth whitening,
- Oral, maxillofacial and dental surgeries.
In addition, it can be applied on hard tissues such as tooth enamel or soft tissues such as palate. What is more, all kinds of surgical procedures on the jawbone and gingiva can be performed comfortably without swelling or bruising.
How is Dental Laser Treatment Performed?
In dental laser treatments, many procedures can be performed together with the same device without changing the tip, only by changing the settings. One of the uncomfortable situations during the treatment is the sounds and vibrations emitted from the laser device. This is not the case in dental laser treatment. In addition, with laser technology in dental implant applications, all surgical stages are facilitated, thus enabling to save time.
Dental laser treatment method is preferred by people of many ages as it does not cause any pain or soreness and does not require anaesthesia. It is also ideal for children as it does not require any sound or vibration.
Some laser application areas are as follows:
- Laser Assisted Implant Applications
- Use of laser in cavity preparation for filling
- Use of laser for dentin smoothing
- Use of laser in bone tissue
- Use of laser in Periodontology (Gum Diseases)
- Gingivectomy – Gingivoplasty
- Tooth Surface Cleaning
- Pigmentation treatment
- Use of laser in soft tissue surgery
- Use of laser for early diagnosis of caries • Use of laser in endodontics (root canal treatment)
