LASER DENTISTRY

Laser dentistry utilizes concentrated light beams to perform precise dental procedures—cutting, removing, disinfecting, or reshaping both hard (teeth, bone) and soft (gum) tissues.

Common applications of Laser:

1. Gum Depigmentation

Purpose: Removes excess melanin causing dark patches for an even pink gum appearance.

Process: A laser—often diode, CO₂, or Erbium—is used to selectively vaporize pigmented gum tissue.

Recovery: Usually completes in a single session (20–45 min), heals in a few days, with low risk of repigmentation.

Benefits: Precise, bloodless, minimally invasive, with fast healing and great cosmetic results.

 

 

2. White Patch Removal (Oral Lesion Ablation)

Purpose: Eliminates benign soft-tissue lesions (e.g. leukoplakia, fibroma) for diagnosis or cosmetic reasons.

Process: Laser ablates the lesion, sealing vessels as it cuts—no scalpels or stitches needed.

Recovery: Minimal discomfort and swelling; tissue regenerates quickly in a few days.

 

3. Tongue-Tie (Lingual Frenectomy)

Purpose: Releases a tight band under the tongue (ankyloglossia) to improve feeding, speech, and tongue mobility.

Process: A CO₂ or diode laser severs the lingual frenulum with precise cutting and instant cauterization.

Recovery: Quick (few days); often with no anaesthesia in infants; low bleeding and fast healing.

 

4. Lip-Tie (Labial Frenectomy)

Purpose: Removes restrictive tissue between lip and gum (lip-tie) to fix gaps, improve breastfeeding, aid orthodontics, or stabilize dentures.

Process: Laser cuts the labial frenulum cleanly, eliminating tension on gums or teeth.

Recovery: Fast healing with minimal bleeding and high precision.

 

Common Advantages of All These Laser Procedures

Precision & Minimal Trauma: Targets only unwanted tissue, preserving healthy areas.

Minimal Bleeding & Sutures: Laser cauterizes as it cuts—most cases require no stitches.

Less Pain & Faster Healing: Quicker procedures, fewer pain meds, and swift return to normal activities.

Lower Infection Risk: Laser sterilizes the site, reducing bacterial presence.

Child-Friendly: No scalpels or sutures; ideal for infants and anxious patients.

 

Considerations & Aftercare

Temporary discomfort: Mild swelling or tenderness is normal; avoid hot/spicy foods and follow post-op care (gentle hygiene, saline rinses, recommended exercises for tongue/lip release).

Possible need for touch-ups: Rare repigmentation or tissue reattachment may prompt follow-up.
