Medical lasers are replacing more and more of the most common dental implements. There are so many advantages to medical lasers that it’s difficult to even list them all:
Medical lasers replace the cutting surfaces of a variety of different dental tools. That being the case, you never have to worry about whether a tool has been sanitized properly between uses.
Any time that manual tools are used, there’s some risk of an improper cut. Although this risk is minimal when trained professionals are on the scene, medical lasers are even easier to use.
Medical lasers make possible a wide variety of procedures that were once considered difficult, specialized, or even impossible. Lasers can be used to evaluate the health of teeth and find the most microscopic evidence of damage, for example.
Most people have things they would rather do than spend time at the dentist, even if they work hard to maintain the health of their teeth. Thanks to medical lasers, visits can be much faster.
There are still some procedures that will require anesthesia and “the whole nine yards,” of course. However, as medical lasers become more advanced, they make things much more convenient than ever before.
Since they can also be used as diagnostic tools, medical lasers make it possible for patients to change the way they take care of their teeth and gums in response to the very earliest signs of problems.
That can mean that an entire visit in the future might be completely avoided, because it’s possible to take action sooner. Who knows what other value medical lasers might offer soon?
It was not that long ago when laser dentistry was practically unknown in most of the United States. Stony Brook Family Dentistry was one of the first dental offices to deliver on the promise of modern laser dentistry for Long Island.
