Diode Laser Q & A
A diode laser is a cutting-edge dental technique that uses different nanometer wavelengths to treat soft tissue conditions and perform restorative dental work.
Using diode laser technology, Dr. Hardt and Dr. Monterroso can easily remove infected and inflamed gum tissue with less bleeding and swelling than traditional gum surgery.
The use of diode lasers in dentistry is on the rise as the technology offers many benefits over other types of dental surgeries and restoration procedures.
- Aesthetic enhancement of your gums
- Gum disease pockets
- Canker sores
Diode laser technology doesn’t produce a lot of heat, making it a safe and effective option for treating periodontal disease and gingivitis. Laser energy helps significantly reduce bacteria and other toxins found in your gum pockets.
Dr. Hardt and Dr. Monterroso also use diode laser treatments for removing gum tissue over unerupted teeth and contouring gum tissue to enhance the appearance of your smile.
Dr. Hardt and Dr. Monterroso determine if diode laser treatment is right for you during your initial consultation. If you need treatment for a soft tissue condition or to remove excess tissue inside your mouth, laser techniques may be the most effective treatment option.
Diode laser treatments are also safe for people who may not otherwise be able to undergo certain dental procedures, such as patients with pacemakers.
