Painless Anaesthesia - The Wand
Painful and ineffective injections of the past were responsible for many dental phobias. This local anaesthesia delivery system combined with precise and gentle techniques enables us to keep discomfort and stress levels to an absolute minimum.
Laser Treatments
Why treatment with a dental laser is often the better option?
There are many advantages to using dental lasers :
1. COMFORT: The vast majority of patients are "naturally" anxious before going to the dentist. It has been noted that if the dentist is using a laser, the majority of patients, especially children, are much more relaxed and feel much more comfortable during and after the treatment. Follow-up treatment appointments are also adhered to much more strictly.
In most of cases, the dental laser can replace the drill, which often reduces the discomfort felt by patients which is related to elements associated with drills (vibration, piercing noise, and pressure). Local anesthetics are often not necessary, which eliminates the unpleasant sensations related to injections. The inflammation and the swelling of tissues are also kept to a minimum. Generally speaking, the dental laser eliminates the effects of classic surgical treatments.
The patients return to home without numbness in the face and without pain.
In addition, the latest generation of dental lasers offers the possibility of desensitizing painful teeth.
2. EFFICIENCY : The laser allows the dental surgeon to provide the highest quality of work:
The dental laser is a non rotative and non invasive tool, therefore no instrument penetrates into the tissues of the mouth. The precision of the laser avoids any damage of the surrounding tissues. The dental laser has a bio-stimulation effect, which allows for a much quicker tissue regeneration and healing process in comparison to traditional methods like scalpel, electrosurgery...
The antibacterial effect of the dental laser beam noticeably decreases the risk of postoperative complications and facilitates the healing.
In periodontal treatments, the dental laser helps to "save" loose teeth. Clinical results are predictable.
3. TIME SAVING : Patients no longer have to wait for an anesthetic to take effect. Moreover, a clinician can perform more procedures on a patient during the same visit while using the laser. Certain treatments also require fewer sessions and that decreases the number of multiple appointments.
4. OFFER OF ADDITIONAL CARE : Finally, your dentist can offer treatments which were previously difficult to perform in the clinic: treatment of periodontal pockets, smile design, microdentistry.>
