Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry involves using lasers to treat a number of different dental conditions. Laser dentistry potentially offers a more convenient treatment option for a range of dental procedures involving hard or soft tissue compared to dental burs and other non-laser instruments. In laser dentistry, the instrument creates light energy in the form of a very narrow, focused beam. This laser light causes a reaction when it hits the tissues, which allows it to remove the tissues or shape them.
