Laser treatments in dental treatment





Laser applications have been used in medicine since the 60s. The use of laser devices, which have been used in limited areas for nearly 20 years in dentistry clinics, has expanded with the advancement of laser technology.

What is a laser? How does it work?

The word laser can be described as "Stimulating the Light". The laser device is basically a light amplifier. The light waves generated by the laser device are a form of electromagnetic energy. Dental lasers work with the principle of hydrokinetic energy obtained by the combination of atomized water sprays with laser energy.

Where is it applied in laser dentistry?

With the new dental lasers, both soft tissue (palate) and hard tissue (tooth enamel) operations can be performed easily.

Some of these applications:

Cleaning dental caries, dental fillings
Canal treatments
All kinds of surgical procedures in the jawbone and gingiva, shaping the gingiva
Sensitization of sensitive teeth
Teeth whitening
Opening of dark-colored gums
Treatment of mouth sores, aphthae
Advantages of laser applications:

With the new generation dental laser, it is possible to work without touching the teeth and other tissues. In this way, heat, vibration and friction due to pain does not occur due to the need for tooth numbing. Therefore, it is preferable for all age group patients who have fear of dentist.
100% disinfection and sterilization is provided in the area where laser is used.
The selective treatment of the decayed laser beam allows the treatment to be completed with minimal material loss. (Only removes the rotten area from the tooth.)
There is almost no bleeding during the operation with laser. After each surgery, complications, swelling and discomfort are reduced and a faster recovery is achieved.
Laser "teeth whitening" operations in a very short time is possible to get better results.
In patients with genetically excessive violet coloration (hyperpigmentation) in the gums, this problem can be eliminated by laser peeling in 3 or 4 sessions.
With laser applications, composite filling applications known as laser fillers and hardened by a light source should not be confused with each other.
