Laser gum treatment in Fort Worth, TX
Dental lasers let us treat gum tissue precisely, with less bleeding and a gentler recovery than a scalpel allows.
Laser dentistry advancements
The evolution of dental laser technology has changed a great deal about modern dentistry. Lasers are now used routinely in treating tooth decay, managing periodontal disease and reshaping soft tissue.
A major advantage is the way laser energy can be combined with water and air, allowing safe cutting and shaping of both soft and hard tissue. By energising water molecules within the tooth, a laser can cut precisely without the heat and vibration patients associate with a drill.
It is worth understanding that dental lasers are not suitable for every procedure. Dr. Le will tell you plainly when a conventional approach is the better option for your case.
Where a laser earns its place
- Treating periodontal disease by removing infected tissue from gum pockets
- Reshaping an uneven or ‘gummy’ gumline before cosmetic work
- Treating areas of tooth decay with less need for the drill
- Managing soft-tissue lesions and aiding healing after treatment
A gentler experience
Less bleeding
Laser energy seals small blood vessels as it works, which usually means a cleaner field and a tidier result.
Often fewer stitches
Because the tissue is sealed rather than cut open, many laser procedures need little or no suturing.
Comfortable recovery
Most patients report less post-operative soreness and swelling than they expected, and get back to normal quickly.
