The soft tissue dental laser is a versatile tool that can be used for a variety of purposes, from removing decay to whitening teeth.
Laser dentistry is often less invasive than traditional methods, which means there is less discomfort and fewer side effects for patients.
In some cases, the use of a laser can help to prevent the need for more invasive treatments, such as tooth extractions.
Laser technology continues to transform many procedures in healthcare. Once the subject of sci-fi movies, lasers now clearly provide benefits for mainstream treatment in medicine and dentistry. At Signature Smiles, we use soft tissue lasers to help provide our Connecticut clients comprehensive dental care.
The soft tissues of the mouth cover about 30 square inches of surface area. Annoying lumps or bumps may need removal, with any unusual patches of tissue requiring further microscopic analysis. Traditionally, a surgical procedure involving incisions and sutures would be required to produce a biopsy sample. Today, our doctors use a wand-like tool to remove bothersome bumps within a few minutes. The healing stimulated by laser energy leads to rapid healing and little to no discomfort, without the need for stitches.
Similarly, gums can be quickly reshaped without bleeding, and some gum infections are now treated with rapid results.
Even cold sores or mouth ulcers can undergo faster healing when laser energy passes over the surface. Better yet, the days of pain associated with these recurring ulcers can be dramatically decreased. Lasers are also safe for use with children and can help with growth and development issues or help wisdom teeth move into place.
A soft tissue laser offers a valuable benefit to many commonly treated conditions in the mouth. Out team of doctors has received specific training in laser protocols to give you the best quality care possible. Contact us today to learn more about soft tissue laser treatment!
