What is laser dentistry?
Over the past few years, laser dentistry in Calgary has become more popular and widely accessed by patients seeking alternative forms to well-known dental treatments. The benefits of laser treatment are extensive but some of the main things that patients love are: that it is non-invasive, comfortable and efficient. Laser treatment works through concentrated light energy in the form of a beam to help treat and heal tissue. Laser treatment is used for both hard and/or soft tissue treatments. Some laser treatments include treating sensitivity, treating gum disease, and treating tooth decay. Additionally, lasers can also be used as a whitening treatment.
Laser treatment options: hard tissue lasers and soft tissue lasers.
Hard tissue laser treatments:
- Can detect tooth decay and cavities
