Advantages Over Conventional Technologies

Advantages

Uses of Lasers in Dentistry

1.(A) Non-Surgical Alternative to Flap Surgery.

  • In pyorrhoea : A non-invasive procedure providing better results and is cost effective compared to flap surgery ( Laser Pocket thermolysis )
  • In medically compromised patients especially those suffering from hypertension, diabetes, cardiac problems, organ transplant and epileptic where surgery is not feasible.
  • Excisional new attachment procedures (irradiation of periodontal pockets using lasers.)

1.(B) Laser Assisted Flap Surgery

  • In younger group of patients suffering from pyorrhoea where flap surgery is indicated, Laser can be used simultaneously as it arrests bleeding and provides a clear sterile operative field for the surgical parts to be done at the best.

2. Gingivectomy and Gingivoplasty

  • Gingival hyperplasia induced by antihypertensive and antiepileptic drugs can be effectively excised using lasers.

3. Root Canal Treatment

    • Canal Sterilization: Majority of Root canal failures are attributed to incomplete removal of tissue from the canals. Laser tip when inserted within the canals, burns any tissue left and hence reduces the chance of failure.

4. Frenectomy

  • Midline spacing in upper and tower antaiors may often be due to high frenum attachment which can be relieved painlessly by excising with laser.

5. Tongue Tie

  • Speech difficulties faced by people with tongue tie can be treated by lingual frenectomy using laser and marked improvement or complete elimination of difficulty is achieved at the same moment.

6. Aesthetic

  • Gummy smile often creates an unaesthetic smile which hampers a person’s confidence. Aesthetic recontouring of the gums and thus increasing crown length gives back the healthy natural smile.

 

7. Vestibuloplasty

  • In old denture wearers, ridge resorption often poses a retentive problem, sulcular deepening yields greater retentive area and with the use of lasers, healing is better and painless so denture fabrication is easier.

8. Implant Exposure

9. Pericoronal Flap Removal

  • Tissue flap overlying erupting teeth often causes pain and recurrent infection especially in third molar area. Flap can be excised and the problem solved within few minutes by Laser.

10. Aphthous Ulcer

  • Most painful oral ulcer can be immediately relieved by laser ablation.

11. OSMF

    • Effective mouth opening can be achieved by cutting the fibrotic band as using laser for the same prevents any kind of scarring and bleeding

12. White Patches

  • Leukaplakia(Lichenplanus) can be treated by Laser surgical procedure.

13. Biopsy

    • Cystic lesion, benign tumors excision and soft tissue curettage can be done by lasers.

14. Laser Whitening

    • Whitening with better results and patient acceptance is achieved using laser. Stains can be effectively removed.

We consider Laser Technology as a boon to Dentistry and our special emphasis on Laser Assisted Treatments is putting us on the forefront of Dentistry World.
