Laser Dentistry

Painless dentistry has entered a new era with Lasers. An amplified high energy light source replaces the dental drill and scalpel which patients have feared for many years. At Srinivasam Dental, we use Dental lasers for the following applications:

  • 1. Laser Curettage
  • 2. Frenectomy
  • 3. Vestibuloplasty
  • 4. Teeth Whitening
  • 5. Tongue Tie Removal
  • 6. Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (lanap)

As patients typically feel less pain with Lasers compared to other dental instruments, very little anaesthesia is needed when a laser is used. In some cases we are able to avoid the use of anaesthesia altogether.

How Does Laser Dentistry Work?

Dental lasers produce concentrated beams of light that interact with tissue to remove or reshape it. Depending on the procedure, lasers can be used to remove decay, reshape gums, treat infections, or whiten teeth. The laser energy targets only the affected area while preserving surrounding healthy tissue, making the procedure more precise and less invasive.

Benefits of Laser Dentistry

One of the major advantages of laser dentistry is enhanced patient comfort. Procedures are often less painful, with reduced bleeding and swelling. Healing time is typically faster compared to conventional methods. The precision of laser treatment also minimizes damage to surrounding tissues and lowers the risk of infection.

Why Choose Laser Dentistry?

Laser dentistry offers a modern, minimally invasive approach to dental care. It provides improved accuracy, quicker recovery, and a more comfortable experience, making it an excellent option for patients seeking advanced and efficient dental treatment.

Laser Dentistry – FAQs

Dental Lasers use amplified light to focus a beam of concentrated energy on the area that is being worked on. In many cases, they are much more convenient to use that scalpels and other surgical instruments. Patients who have had a laser procedure done typically complain of less discomfort after the procedure as well.

Due to how a dental laser operates, there is minimal to no bleeding during the procedure. This is another major advantage of the laser as it allows the Srinivasam Dental team to work more efficiently.

All laser procedures are done under local anesthesia at Srinivasam Dental. You will not feel any pain at all during the procedure. A mild “raw” feeling of the gums may be felt after the local anesthesia wears off for a day or two.

Dental laser procedures result in little or no discomfort following surgery. Take the prescribed pain medications according to instructions, if needed. Avoid chewing food in the areas of the mouth where the laser has been used for a few days. The Srinivasam Dental team will be able to give you more specific instructions on this after the procedure.

Yes, even though the discomfort may be mild when using the laser without anesthesia, the Srinivasam Dental team strongly prefers to use anesthesia during a laser procedure.

Procedures done with a laser usually heal very fast. Depending on the location and extent of the procedure, the healing time can be anywhere from 1-3 days.
