Focus on Comfort: Dental Lasers
Laser Cleanings
Dr. Salami now uses a low-powered laser for traditional cleanings. This revolutionary solution for removing plaque and killing bacteria is more comfortable than cleanings performed with metal tools and it's also faster. That means less time standing between you and your normal schedule.
Laser Surgery
But lasers are transforming more than traditional cleanings. They’re also transforming medical surgery by offering minimally-invasive alternatives to traditional scalpel incisions and sutured closures. Laser light is extremely efficient, producing very little heat as it acts on its target. This makes it ideal for oral surgery, since it seldom affects tissues other than those it targets. The laser provides precise control over the depth and extent of cutting, while simultaneously minimizing bleeding and sterilizing the treatment area.
Versatility and Applications
Lasers can cure (harden) dental materials, scan teeth to detect decay, vaporize decay and prep teeth for fillings, and activate whitening gel to brighten smiles. Currently, dental applications include gum disease treatments, gum re-contouring, root canal cleaning, decay detection and elimination, bonding material curing and strengthening, incision cauterizing and tissue fusion, lesion reparation, biopsies, and super-fast teeth whitening procedures.
