Laser in dentistry has been used since the year 1994 because of its ability to minimize discomfort, reduce the risk of infection, lessen damage to the surrounding tissues, and fasten the recovery period.  This makes it the perfect innovative solution that can harbor optimal results. To give you an insight of what laser dentistry Jupiter can do, here are the common laser dentistry procedures you should try:

Teeth Whitening

Using laser energy, the peroxide bleaching solution applied on your teeth’s surface is activated to hasten the teeth whitening process. Just keep in mind that there are precautions of using one, so this technique must be done by a professional.

Tooth Decay

Laser dentistry Jupiter can remove decay within your tooth and ready the neighboring enamel for the filling. It can also remove protruding tissues from a partly exposed wisdom tooth, remove small amounts of tooth enamel for composite bonding, repair worn-down fillings, and reshape gum tissues and bone for crown lengthening procedures.

Gum Disease

Gum disease and other problems associated with gums can be treated using a laser. It can reshape gum tissues that have excessively grown due to various medications, remove irritated and inflamed gum tissues, and reduce the number of bacteria in your gums to help treat gum disease.

Lesion Removal or Biopsy

Your dentist can also use a laser to remove tissue for a sample, so it can be tested and examined for cancer. Lasers can also remove muscle attachments that limit lip or tongue movements. It can also remove lesions from your mouth and reduce the discomfort from cankers and cold sores.
