Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry is used to effectively and safely perform dental procedures by focusing the treatment on a specific area, thus eliminating exposure of and damage to the surrounding tissues.

Laser dentistry eliminates the need for anesthesia and sutures for dental procedures. Bleeding is also minimalised as the laser beam promotes blood clotting.

The risk for bacterial infection is also reduced because the high-energy beam sterilises the tissues. Using laser dentistry also greatly reduces the damage to the surrounding areas. This technology facilitates faster healing and recovery for the patient.

Some of the conditions that can be treated by laser dentistry include misaligned tooth structure, tooth sensitivity, gummy smile, benign tumors, cold sores and sleep apnoea.
