Laser Dentistry

Lasers have proven useful in many different industries. Dentistry is just one. Lasers provide the ability to perform procedures faster and pain-free without the use of anesthesia.

Laser energy can be used to relieve pain from ulcers, lesions, or cold sores while promoting faster healing. The laser prevents pain by sealing off nerve endings while destroying any viruses causing the less. By killing off the virus, the laser also prevents it from spreading.

A toothache is agonizing with the pain rising from the root. Lasers provide immediate relief from sensitivity and pain. The laser is concentrated in the sensitive areas which seals the tubules of the nerve fibers and suppressing the pain.

TMD can also be treated with laser therapy. The nerves in the jaw are targeted for suppression of pain, and blood is sent to the affected areas to promote faster healing. The disc between the ball and socket of the jaw joint can also be restored with laser energy.
