Lasers in Dentistry – Minimally Invasive Procedures
The Fotona LightWalker® Laser is capable of delivering greater patient comfort, faster healing and better overall accuracy in root canal therapy than traditional laser treatments. Compared to mechanical procedures, the laser technology can completely clean, debride and disinfect anatomically complex root canal systems.
Most patients are candidates for laser endodontic treatment.
Some additional benefits lasers have over traditional methods include:
Reduced heat and vibration
Little or no need for anesthetic
Minimal bleeding
Faster treatment time
Increased rate of retention of implants
Reduced damage to healthy tissues
Minimal post-operative swelling and discomfort
Fewer infections or post-operative complications
Lasers have numerous functions in dentistry including:
Root canal treatment
Reshape gum tissue
Biopsy or remove soft tissue lesions and ulcers
Remove areas of tooth decay
Dental implant placement
Eliminate infection in gum tissue pockets
Perform frenectomies (such as correction of ankyloglossia)
