Laser Technology Offers Virtually Pain-Free Dental Care

Laser dentistry is a new and exciting technology that can improve your comfort level and your results.

Some lasers are used for dental surgery, some are used to cure restorative materials and enhance tooth bleaching, and others are used to remove tooth decay. All lasers require that both the patient and dentist wear safety glasses with special lenses.

While the dental laser is being used, you should be able to relax comfortably – without enduring noisy whining or drilling sounds. Depending on your needs, your dentist may use the laser for a long period of time or for brief moments.

Dental lasers can pinpoint the smallest areas of tooth decay that can’t be picked up by probing or X-rays. Lasers also minimize or eliminate the need for anesthesia, and dramatically reduce discomfort both during and after dental procedures.
