Dental lasers let us treat gum tissue precisely, with less bleeding and a gentler recovery than a scalpel allows.
The evolution of dental laser technology has changed a great deal about modern dentistry. Lasers are now used routinely in treating tooth decay, managing periodontal disease and reshaping soft tissue.
A major advantage is the way laser energy can be combined with water and air, allowing safe cutting and shaping of both soft and hard tissue. By energising water molecules within the tooth, a laser can cut precisely without the heat and vibration patients associate with a drill.
It is worth understanding that dental lasers are not suitable for every procedure. Dr. Le will tell you plainly when a conventional approach is the better option for your case.

Laser energy seals small blood vessels as it works, which usually means a cleaner field and a tidier result.
Because the tissue is sealed rather than cut open, many laser procedures need little or no suturing.
Most patients report less post-operative soreness and swelling than they expected, and get back to normal quickly.
