What Difference Does Laser Dentistry Make for Atlanta Patients?

For patients throughout the Atlanta area, laser dentistry offers transformative benefits that make dental care more comfortable and efficient. The advantages extend far beyond traditional methods.

No Use of Needles


Many people are scared of needles, and in the past, dentists had no choice but to use them. Now with laser technology, we can perform routine dental treatments like fillings without using general anesthesia. This needle-free approach significantly reduces dental anxiety.

Effectiveness and Precision


Lasers are very precise, and the risk of complications is very low. The laser is able to remove the smallest bits of plaque and tartar. This means that you get to enjoy better oral health. You can reduce the likelihood of cavities as you brush and floss regularly.

Less Pain and Discomfort


The laser procedure itself isn’t painful, so you won’t require an anesthetic for a laser treatment. However, you may experience some sensitivity afterward, which can be minimized by placing ice packs on your face.

Faster Treatment Process


Before laser technology, you had to wait until the sedation started taking its effect before beginning the procedure. This dental laser can offer you a high-quality quicker process without wasting any extra time. Many procedures can now be completed in a single visit, similar to our same-day crowns and bridges service.

Better Experience for Children


Children will start feeling at ease during their dental visits; all credits go to laser technology. If your child needs to get a filling, then it can be done comfortably with its help. Our family dentistry approach incorporates laser technology to create positive experiences for young patients.

No More Numb Feeling


Hate that numb feeling after a dental process? To make dental procedures painless, laser technology can help. This laser doesn’t leave a numbing sensation and makes procedures non-invasive with just a little healing time.

What Types of Procedures Can Be Performed Using Laser Technology?

Laser dentistry in Atlanta can be used for almost any type of dental treatment, including:

 

 

This versatility makes laser dentistry an ideal solution for patients seeking minimally invasive dental care.

What Can You Expect with Laser Dentistry?

During the procedure, Dr. Patel and our team will ensure proper safety protocols. You won’t be numb, so there might be a little sensation without pain. Patients who have undergone the procedure with laser technology say that they had a feeling of something cold every now and then.

 

A dental laser operates on the basic principle of light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. When the laser light comes in contact with tissue, it causes a reaction that removes or reshapes tissue. Lasers can be used to reshape gums, remove excess gum tissue, treat tooth decay, and even treat cavities. The whole process will be pain-free, so all you have to do is stay calm in the dental chair and have a pleasant experience.
