Benefits of Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry is a cutting-edge approach to dental care that utilizes laser technology for various dental procedures. It offers a minimally invasive alternative to traditional methods, providing patients with a more comfortable and efficient experience. Laser dentistry can be used for a wide range of treatments, including gum disease therapy, cavity detection, tooth whitening, and soft tissue procedures. By harnessing the power of laser energy, dentists can perform precise and targeted treatments while minimizing discomfort, bleeding, and recovery time for patients.

Minimal Bleeding

Laser dentistry promotes hemostasis, meaning it helps to control bleeding during procedures. The laser’s energy aids in clotting, reducing the likelihood of excessive bleeding both during and after treatment.

Preservation of Healthy Tissue

Laser technology,  allows for precise targeting of only the affected areas, preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.

Reduced Need for Anesthesia

Laser dentistry is often less invasive and gentler than traditional methods, resulting in reduced discomfort for patients. In many cases, anesthesia may not be necessary, leading to a more comfortable and stress-free experience

Minimize Risk for Surrounding Structures

The precision of laser technology minimizes the risk of damage to nearby teeth, gums, and other oral structures. This reduces the likelihood of complications during and after treatment, leading to better outcomes for patients.

Faster Treatment Times

Laser procedures are often quicker than traditional methods, thanks to their precision and efficiency. This means less time spent in the dental chair for patients, allowing them to return to their daily activities soone

Improved Patient Experience

The reduced discomfort, minimal bleeding, and faster healing times contribute to a positive treatment experience, encouraging patients to seek necessary dental care without fear or hesitation

From the receptionist, to the hygienist, to the dentist, they all did an amazing job helping me with my teeth pain that I had sustained at work when I accidentally pulled a little too hard lifting something heavy at work which then I clenched my teeth too hard and mouth and teeth were sore for a little bit. But everybody was great took care of me the same day can't say enough about how practice and the people were amazing switching from where I used to go to here now!! Thank you!!

Highly recommend this business. I shamefully have not been to the dentist in over 5 years and they made me feel right at home. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating and the dentist I spoke with was very kind and explained everything great along with setting up a plan to get things in order. It surpassed my expectations since I have not had great experiences in the past. Had a tooth pulled and 2 root canals/crowns all in a visit today and I freaking love Dr. Fielding!! He knows what he’s doing and spot on. Highly recommend
