Laser Dentistry in Hervey Bay
Many people experience that comfort with laser dentistry, a modern technique using focused light energy to carry out precise dental procedures. Hervey Bay Dental is pleased to offer laser dentistry to make your care simpler, gentler, and often faster.
A Modern Approach to Dental Care
Laser dentistry uses a highly concentrated beam of light to remove or reshape tissue during dental procedures. This advanced technology creates less heat, and bleeding compared to traditional tools, which may make your visit feel more comfortable. For many patients, a laser procedure is less painful, more cost-effective, and promotes quicker healing.
Lasers, which stands for “light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation,” have become helpful tools for many dental processes. They allow us to perform precise procedures while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
How Does This Method Help?
Lasers can be used in a variety of procedures to improve both your oral health and comfort:
- Gum Disease Care: Targets diseased tissue while leaving healthy gum intact
- Wisdom Teeth: Helps expose impacted teeth with less discomfort
