LASER-ASSISTED THERAPY IN DENTAL TREATMENTS
Many patients ask for information about laser-assisted therapy. The dentists at our clinic use this type of dental treatment daily. In recent years, the dental field has evolved both in terms of applied therapies and technological advancements. Today, a dentist has access to cutting-edge tools that ensure precision in performing procedures with a definitive resolution of dental issues.
Laser-assisted therapy represents excellence in the treatment and resolution of various issues affecting the teeth, gums, and oral cavity.
Another key factor in choosing this therapy, which should not be underestimated, is the state of psychological and physical relaxation it can provide to the patient undergoing treatment. This type of therapy, in fact, is non-invasive and excludes the use of traditional dental tools that often intimidate patients.
HOW LASER-ASSISTED THERAPY WORKS
Laser is a very useful tool in all areas of dentistry. This highly versatile device with enormous potential allows for effective therapies and treatments to be performed with maximum comfort.
The term “laser” stands for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation, which means “amplification of light through stimulated emission of radiation.” The laser used in dentistry emits a beam of high-energy light that can interact with a target tissue when focused on a small area. This allows for cutting, vaporization, or coagulation, and helps eliminate diseased tissue in the oral cavity and bacteria present in the mouth. The light beam is capable of sterilizing the target area while simultaneously coagulating blood vessels, reducing the risk of infection or bleeding.
