Laser Therapy
Dr Ansuyah Magan's incorporation of laser therapy into her dental practice is a reflection of her dedication to providing cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatments. Understanding the interconnection between dental health and general wellness, she employs laser therapy to offer more comfortable, efficient, and effective dental care.
What is laser dental therapy?
Laser dental therapy is a progressive dental treatment that uses focused light beams to perform various dental procedures with precision and minimal invasiveness.
This technology allows for targeting specific tissue types, making it highly effective for cutting through tooth or gum tissue, killing bacteria, and activating tissue regeneration. It is a versatile tool that Dr Magan skillfully uses to enhance patient comfort and treatment outcomes.
How are laser therapy treatments performed?
During laser therapy treatments, Dr Magan uses a device that emits a highly focused beam of light energy precisely directed to the area needing treatment. This can remove or shape tissue, kill harmful bacteria, and promote healing.
The specifics of the procedure vary depending on the treatment's goal, but generally, patients experience no discomfort, and for some procedures do not require anesthesia.
What types of lasers are used?
Two main types of lasers are used in dental treatments: hard tissue and soft tissue lasers. Hard tissue lasers are primarily used for cutting through tooth structure and are ideal for preparing teeth for fillings or adjusting tooth length.
Soft tissue lasers are better suited for gum work, such as shaping gums or removing soft tissue folds. Dr Magan selects the appropriate type of laser based on the treatment's specific needs, ensuring the best possible outcome.
What are the benefits of laser therapy?
The benefits of using laser therapy in dental treatments are numerous:
- Reduced discomfort during and after procedures.
- Reduced bleeding and swelling in treatments involving soft tissues.
- Minimize the risk of infection, as the laser sterilizes the area.
- Faster healing times and quicker recovery.
- Control of the gag reflex.
Laser therapy is highly safe and effective, and Dr Magan's expertise and careful technique ensure a safe and beneficial treatment experience.
