LASER THERAPY Q&A
What is laser therapy?
Laser therapy uses innovative technological instruments that emit light to help target and treat several dental conditions. The word LASER stands for light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation. This means the production of focused and amplified light creates the desired effect.
What are the benefits of laser therapy?
Laser therapy produces numerous desirable outcomes in dentistry. This treatment is more efficient and accessible than other alternatives, namely drills, which can increase patient anxiety and lead to delays in seeking help. Laser therapy also helps keep soft dental tissue intact because of its minimally invasive design. Laser therapy treats many soft and hard tissue conditions, including:
- Dental pain
- Nerve damage
- Hypersensitivity in the oral cavity
- Poor wound healing
- Gingivitis
- Teeth discoloration
- Gum disease
The use of laser therapy continues to increase, replacing and outshining non-laser alternatives, which tend to be more costly, require longer recovery times, and induce more significant pain.
What should you expect from laser therapy?
After booking an appointment with your provider at Anna M. Munné, DDS, PA & ASSOCIATES, they will identify any pertinent issues. With laser therapy as the treatment of choice, you can expect little to no pain and discomfort. Some bleeding may occur; however, this is typical and quickly cleaned by the dental associate.
Owing to the low-risk nature of laser therapy, there are likely to be no complications after your treatment. You are free to continue with your day per your provider’s instructions.
Is laser therapy safe?
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved laser therapy as a safe procedure in dental treatment with minimal risk. Furthermore, laser therapy is more easily implemented within dental procedures when compared with alternatives, making it a user-friendly option.
Your provider will give you protective eyewear that is specifically designed to block out the laser’s rays during a laser therapy treatment. Any team members in proximity to the procedure also wear protective gear.
The team at Anna M. Munné, DDS, PA & ASSOCIATES take any and all safety precautions to elevate your well-being. To learn more about laser therapy, call the Houston, Texas, office or book through the online portal.
