Painless Laser Therapy Available by Our Voorhees Dentist
Lasers are more advantageous in the pediatric population. Laser procedures eliminate the vibratory effects of a conventional high-speed handpiece, allowing tooth preparations to be comfortable and decrease anxiety for children and adolescents.
In dentistry, lasers act as a cutting instrument or a vaporizer of tissue that it comes in contact with. Lasers are used to remove the decay within a tooth and prepare the surrounding enamel for receipt of the filling, to strengthen the bond between the filling and the tooth, to reshape gums and remove bacteria during root canal procedures, for cancer screening through biopsy and to remove lesions, and to speed up the teeth whitening process in our dental office.
The benefits of using lasers are:
• less pain
• reduced anxiety
• minimal bleeding and swelling
• selective and precise interaction with damaged tissues
• less damage to adjacent tissues
• no need for stitches
• no need for anesthetic injections
• rapid wound healing
• and more!
It also reduces the procedure time and minimizes the need for post-procedural antibiotics due to its bactericidal effects.
Our Voorhees dentists are experts in harnessing the maximum potential of laser therapy.
