The field of dentistry continues to change thanks to advances in medical technology that happens every day. In the past, lasers were always associated with science fiction. But today, lasers are used in many areas of medicine and dentistry and are continuing to be a popular option for the treatment of various conditions. Patients in Oakville, Ontario who are searching for a dentist that uses today’s technology for diagnostics and treatment of common dental concerns are encouraged to book an
appointment with the team at Sherwood Dental.
Drs. Stephen Gaines and
Arti Patel are committed to reinvesting into their practice to obtain the latest dental devices to perform everyday procedures.
What type of laser dentistry procedures are available?
At Sherwood Dental, we offer a wide range of laser dental procedures for new and existing patients in our community. Some of the more common procedures performed by laser include the treatment of cavities, teeth whitening, and gum contouring. Laser light can be used to perform certain procedures that used to be more invasive, and instead provide a more conservative treatment that results in less discomfort, less pain, and less bleeding. Laser treatments are also known for providing faster healing and recovery, reducing the downtime needed for more involved dental procedures.
Is laser dentistry safe?
When
laser dentistry is performed with precision devices and a trained and experienced hand, it is completely safe and effective. Laser light is used in many areas of medicine and continues to improve. It is important that the professionals who administer laser treatments have the experience they need to ensure safety and efficacy. Patients may also need to wear certain eyewear during laser procedures as an extra layer of protection. Before performing any laser treatments, our dental team will advise patients as to what they can expect before, during, and after the procedure so they fully understand what will be performed during that visit to the dentist’s chair.
