The Use of Laser in Dentistry

Laser is an important device of high tech dentistry. Since the mid nineties, lasers have been used in dentistry and Dr. LaFrom was one of the first dentists to use dental lasers in Santa Clara County. It is indeed an effective and hassle-free way of performing various dental procedures like cavity removal, gum reshaping, teeth whitening, hardening bonding materials and to remove bacteria from periodontal pockets.

Dr. LaFrom, one of the most popular dentists in the Cupertino area, says that the effectiveness of laser dentistry depends on the dentist’s ability to control power output and the duration of exposure on the tissue. It allows for a highly precise treatment without causing damage to the surrounding tissues. The laser treatment also reduces the pain and the recovery time. Some of the other benefits of using laser would be that some of the laser procedures do not require anesthesia and minimizes the bleeding as well as there are chances of getting a bacterial infection. Laser treatment is also a very effective way of dealing with teeth that are sensitive.

There are various types of
dental lasers that are gradually becoming popular among the dentists. These include the laser tools like the Waterlaser system, which are used for the removal of decay and damaged gums, lasers used for cavity detection, and bleaching lasers. Dr. LaFrom also uses argon laser that can be used to cure composites, and a new laser called the DIAGNODENT, which helps to detect the intensity of decay.
