    Treatment Procedures for Laser Dentistry

    During your laser dentistry treatment, our specialist dentists utilise advanced dental laser technology to perform precise and comfortable procedures. The treatment begins with the careful application of the appropriate laser type - either soft tissue or hard tissue lasers - depending on your specific dental needs.

    The procedure itself is remarkably straightforward. Your dentist will use the laser device, which emits a concentrated beam of light, to target the specific treatment area. For cavity treatments, the laser removes decay and prepares the enamel for filling. In gum procedures, it can reshape tissue and eliminate harmful bacteria.

    • Soft Tissue Procedures Include:
      • Gum reshaping
      • Treatment of gum disease
      • Frenectomy procedures
      • Removal of oral lesions
    • Hard Tissue Procedures Include:
      • Cavity preparation
      • Tooth decay removal
      • Crown lengthening
      • Enamel preparation

    During your treatment, you may experience:

    • Minimal to no discomfort
    • Reduced need for local anaesthetic
    • Little to no drilling sounds
    • Shorter treatment time for many procedures

    Most laser dentistry procedures are completed in a single visit, though more complex treatments may require multiple sessions. Our dental team will monitor your comfort throughout the procedure and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the best possible experience.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Our Laser Dentistry in London, UK

    Considering Laser Dentistry? We understand you may have questions. Our team of dental specialists, including a Periodontist, Endodontist and Orthodontist along with our team of Dental Therapists and Nurses are here to guide you through the process.
    What are the benefits and advantages of laser dentistry treatment?

    Laser dentistry offers significant advantages over traditional dental treatments by using focused light beams for precise and minimally invasive procedures. This advanced technology allows for more comfortable treatments with reduced bleeding, swelling, and post-operative discomfort compared to conventional methods.

    The primary benefits of laser dentistry include faster healing times, reduced need for anaesthesia, and greater preservation of healthy tooth structure during cavity treatments.

    • Reduced bleeding during procedures
    • Less post-treatment swelling and discomfort
    • Faster healing and recovery times
    • Decreased need for local anaesthesia in many cases
    • Better preservation of healthy tooth structure
    • Sterilisation of treated areas, reducing infection risk

    Common laser dentistry applications include:

    • Cavity detection and filling preparation
    • Gum disease treatment
    • Crown lengthening procedures
    • Treatment of cold sores and ulcers
    • Teeth whitening enhancement
    • Removal of soft tissue folds for dentures

    Post-treatment care is straightforward, with most patients able to return to normal activities immediately. While individual experiences may vary, many patients report significantly less discomfort compared to traditional dental procedures.
