LASER Light Is Quite Different From Normal Light. It Has The Following Properties ; -

  • The Light Is Monochromatic : - It contains one specific wavelength of light (one specific color)
  • The light is coherent where the photons are organised and the waves of light move in unison
  • Collimation : - This means the light is very directional. A laser light has a very tight beam and is very strong and concentrated. A lightbulb, on the other hand, releases light in many directions, and the light is very weak and scattered


Soft Tissue (Gum) Laser Dentistry Procedures : -


  1. Crown Lengthening : - Dental lasers can reshape gum tissue (soft tissue laser) and bone (hard tissue laser) to expose healthier tooth structure. Referred to as crown lengthening, such reshaping provides a stronger foundation for the placement of restorations.
  1. Gummy Smile : -Dental lasers can reshape gum tissue to expose healthy tooth structure and improve the appearance of a gummy smile.
  1. Muscle Attachment (Frenula): - A laser frenectomy is an ideal treatment option for children who are tongue tied (restricted or tight frenulum) and babies unable to breast feed adequately due to limited tongue movement. A laser frenectomy may also help to eliminate speech impediments.
  1. Soft Tissue Folds (Epulis) : - Dental lasers may be used for the painless and suture-free removal of soft tissue folds often caused by ill-fitting dentures.


Other Laser Dentistry Applications : -


  1. Viewing Tooth and Gum Tissues : -Optical Coherence Tomography is a safer way to see inside tooth and gums in real time.
  1. Benign Tumors : - Dental lasers may be used for the painless and suture-free removal of benign tumors from the gums, palate, sides of cheeks and lips.
  1. Cold Sores : - Low intensity dental lasers reduce pain associated with cold sores and minimize healing time.
  1. Nerve Regeneration : - Photobiomodulation can be used to regenerate damaged nerves, blood vessels and scars.
  1. Sleep Apnea : - In cases where sleep apnea is a result of a tissue overgrowth in areas of the throat (which sometimes occurs with age), a laser assisted uvuloplasty or laser assisted uvula palatoplasty (LAUP) procedure can be performed to reshape the throat and relieve the correlating breathing problems associated with sleep apnea.
  1. Teeth Whitening : - Low intensity soft tissue dental lasers may be used to speed up the bleaching process associated with teeth whitening.
  1. Temporomandibular Joint Treatment : -Dental lasers may be used to quickly reduce pain and inflammation of the temporomandibular jaw joint.


Lasers As An Alternative To The Surgical Scalpel :-
  • Re-contouring of bone and gum (crown lengthening).
  • Oral  surgery  -  Gingivectomy,  Gingivoplasty, Frenectomy ,Leukoplakia removal, Biopsies,
  • Tissue fusion - replacing sutures
  • Implant exposure (2nd stage of implants)
  • Incisions and draining of abscesses


Sterile Procedure

LASER Sterilises In Action

Germ-destroying effect: Bacteria are vaporised instantly resulting in maximum germ reduction. LASER energy heats up and evaporates the moisture within bacterial cells.The cells explode and die.

  • Reduced procedure time and efficient operation with less trauma
  • Minimally invasive and precise: areas outside the laser beam are unaffected.


What Are The Advantages Of LASER Surgery ?

  • LASERs are more gentle than other methods of cutting hard and soft oral tissue
  • Sterilises treatment area
  • Minimal anaesthetic required
  • Less bleeding and swelling
  • Reduced need for stitches
  • Promotes fast healing: Operations with Lasers result in little or no post surgical discomfort
