<h2 itemprop="alternativeHeadline" class="text-contrast">Benefits of Hard-Tissue Laser Dentistry</h2>
<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>Laser dentistry first began in 1960 after the first ruby laser was developed. Since then, the practice has separated into hard-tissue and soft-tissue dentistry. Hard-tissue dentistry focuses on resolving dental problems, while soft-tissue lasers are usually used for cosmetic reasons. Both types of laser dentistry offer many benefits, including the ones listed below.</p>
<ul class="bullet-list">
<li><b>Lasers are sterile:</b> Since lasers work by emitting high-intensity light, they are more sterile than traditional dental tools. The presence of bacteria could lead to a post-procedure infection. Using lasers means there is less chance of infection.</li>
<li><b>Lasers may involve less pain:</b> Many people fear dental work because most procedures involve some form of discomfort. Laser dentistry is direct and does not damage the tooth or the roots, resulting in reduced pain for many people. In several cases, a local anesthesia may not be necessary for laser dental work.</li>
<li><b>Lasers provide enhanced precision:</b> Lasers are more precise than traditional dental tools. While dentists once may have needed to remove healthy tissue to get to damaged tissue, laser dentistry allows them to target specific areas of the mouth. There is no need to risk damaging healthy tissue.</li>
<li><b>Lasers promote faster healing:</b> There is little recovery time associated with laser dentistry. Lasers cauterize damaged nerves, resulting in less bleeding. Patients do not usually need stitches after laser treatment, which speeds up the recovery process.</li>

<div class="divider divider-solid"></div>
<p>While hard-tissue lasers have many uses, they are primarily utilized to find and remove cavities. Enhanced precision lasers often allow dentists to target the affected tooth without risking damage to the healthy tissue surrounding it. Hard-tissue lasers also help prepare teeth for crowns and fillings.</p>
<p>People who are interested in laser dentistry can expect dentists to evaluate the severity of their dental problems before determining if this solution is right for them. If a hard-tissue laser is the best choice, the dentist will perform the procedure and then explain post-surgery care. The dentist may reexamine the problem once the recovery period is over to ensure it is fully healed.</p>

<p>Laser dental treatment is usually not painful, but patients need to give their gums time to heal after surgery. For the first week following a laser dental procedure, patients are advised to stick to a liquid or soft diet. They may return to a normal diet during the second week of recovery. They may also resume brushing their teeth, although they will need to be cautious while doing so. Complete healing can take anywhere from two to four weeks, depending upon the severity of the surgery.</p>

<p class="answers" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<span>A.</span> <span itemprop="text">Laser dentistry uses high-intensity light rather than traditional dental tools to resolve dental problems. Most patients experience no discomfort while undergoing laser dental surgery. However, patients may experience slight discomfort during the recovery process. This can be treated with an over-the-counter pain reliever, such as Tylenol®, Advil®, or Motrin®.</span></p>

<p class="answers" itemscope itemprop="acceptedAnswer" itemtype="https://schema.org/Answer">
<span>A.</span> <span itemprop="text">The cost of laser dentistry varies widely. Dentists charge different amounts based on which procedure the laser is used for. Many insurance companies cover the cost of laser dentistry, so it is a good idea to check with your insurance provider to see if it is right for you.</span></p>

<span>A.</span> <span itemprop="text">Laser dentistry procedures typically take less time than traditional dental treatments.

<span>A.</span> <span itemprop="text">Soft-tissue and hard-tissue lasers are similar in design but have different functions. Soft-tissue lasers are typically used for fixing cosmetic dental problems such as gummy smiles. In contrast, hard-tissue lasers are capable of cutting through harder materials. Hard-tissue lasers can cut through tooth enamel to whiten teeth or separate unhealthy gum tissue from healthy teeth.</span></p>
