Diode Laser Treatment
Diode laser treatment offers numerous advantages for orthodontic patients, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. By utilizing a specialized diode laser, we can safely and effectively address various dental concerns, improving the overall appearance of your smile. Here’s how diode laser treatment can benefit you:
Gum Tissue Reshaping
Your gum tissue acts as a frame for your teeth. With orthodontic lasers, we can shape the gums around your teeth, creating a more harmonious and attractive smile. The laser safely removes excess gum tissue, exposing more of the tooth’s surface for improved cosmetics and function. The best part is that in most cases, the procedure is painless and does not require needles. Should you be wondering, a topical anesthetic is applied before the laser treatment, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure.
Ideal Bracket Placement
Sometimes, certain orthodontic cases may require additional gum tissue removal to facilitate proper bracket placement. The diode laser can precisely remove excess tissue, allowing for optimal bracket positioning. This ensures that your braces are placed correctly, enabling effective tooth movement and alignment.
Impacted Teeth Treatment
Impacted teeth refer to those that haven’t fully erupted through the gums. Instead of waiting for months or resorting to surgical procedures, diode laser therapy can help promote the eruption of impacted teeth. The laser is used to stimulate the gum tissue and encourage the tooth to emerge naturally, saving time and avoiding invasive surgeries.
Aesthetic Gingival Recontouring
After the completion of orthodontic treatment, you may desire further enhancements to your smile’s appearance. Aesthetic gingival recontouring, performed with a diode laser, can reshape your gum line to expose more of your teeth. This procedure is especially beneficial if you have excess gum tissue or an uneven gum line. By precisely removing the excess tissue, we can create a more balanced and symmetrical smile, enhancing your overall dental aesthetics.
Diode laser treatment provides precise and minimally invasive solutions for various orthodontic concerns. Whether you need gum reshaping, bracket placement assistance, treatment for impacted teeth, or aesthetic gum recontouring, our clinic can utilize this advanced technology to help you achieve a beautiful and confident smile.
