LASER DENTISTRY
Laser dentistry is a minimally invasive procedure which does not use surgical blade but an extremely focused light beam. We use lasers, to alter or remove tissue in precise amounts, be it to remove overgrown tissue, to reshape the gums etc. or to whiten teeth.

Why use lasers?
- Anesthesia may not be necessary
- Almost no bleeding
- Don’t require stiches
- Less damage to soft tissue, shortens the healing time
- The laser will sterilize the soft tissue, making infection less likely
Procedure
- During the procedure, you won’t feel any vibrations or discomfort from the laser like you do from the drill. Very less bleeding occurs.
- When you come for your laser dentistry appointment, you will be surprised to discover that the process is very similar to other dentistry appointments
Post-treatment care
- If anesthesia was given, before you start chewing, make sure that the anesthesia is worn off
- Do not bite on hard things for a couple of days
- You might feel sensitivity of teeth or soreness around your gum area; this may last only for a few days. If it is for more than a month please call us.
- Maintain a good oral hygiene routine like brushing & flossing
- Visit us every 6 months for check up, so that problems can be detected even before they occur
