Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry is a technologically advanced field of dentistry that uses dental lasers to perform a variety of dental procedures, instead of using traditional dentistry tools such as brush heads, suctions, or rinse heads.

Dental lasers offer a precise beam of light and make no actual physical contact with a person’s mouth. Dental lasers may produce less pain and faster recovery than traditional dentistry procedures. Laser dentistry can be used for traditional dentistry procedures such as dental crowns and dental fillings, and cosmetic dentistry procedures such as teeth whitening.

Other Dentistry Procedures

People who visit dentists may need one or more of these common dental procedures at some point in their lives. With new technological advances and methods in dentistry, such as sedation dentistry, these procedures are performed more quickly and comfortably than ever before.

Dental implants take the place of missing teeth from injury or poor oral hygiene and can affect a person's smile and self confidence. However, dental implants offer people with missing teeth a solution to improve their smiles.

Dental fillings remove decay in teeth and filling in the area where the decay was removed with composite or porcelain materials.

Bonding repairs cracked and chipped teeth. A composite material is applied to the tooth surface and then molded and shaped to fit the tooth. It is then polished to disguise the crack or chip in the tooth.

Root canals are performed to remove diseased or damaged tissue within a tooth.

Dental braces help to correct a person's bite and teeth alignment for a straight smile and improved chewing.

Dental bridges are used to replace missing teeth with artificial tooth that is held in place by material that warps around other supporting teeth.

Dentures are used to replace missing or damaged teeth that can not be repaired or restored with other common dentistry procedures. An important role in the maintenance of denture functionality and oral health care is denture cleaning.

Dental crowns are used to repair decayed teeth. Crowns cover the entire surface of the decayed tooth to add stability and strength.
