Our diode laser is often used to reshape gum tissues and treat early stages of periodontal disease. For gum reshaping, the laser is effective at achieving symmetry. Typically, this laser improves patient comfort when compared to traditional methods.
BENEFITS OF OUR ADVANCED EVO Diode LASER:
Minimally invasive
Faster treatment time
Significantly reduces amount of bleeding
Virtually painless
Quicker recovery time
No stitches, no needles
HOW DOES THE DIODE LASER WORK?
An electrical current travels through the fiber optic cord of the laser. This produces a controlled ray of light. When the light is concentrated on the target area, unwanted gum tissue or bacterial infection is gently removed.
IS THE DIODE LASER SAFE?
All of our hygienists are trained on the use of this safe and effective laser. Many dental professionals approve the use of this laser for minor soft tissue treatments. Dr. Kaminer has provided instruction and training on laser dentistry throughout the world. He stays up-to-date on the latest innovations in laser dentistry. For more advanced periodontal conditions, Dr. Kaminer normally chooses the Powerlase over a diode laser.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the EVO Diode Laser treatment?
A. The EVO Diode Laser is a dental laser therapy used to gently reshape gum tissue and treat early periodontal (gum) disease. It targets soft tissue with a precise light beam, helping improve gum contour and reduce infection with minimal discomfort.
Q. How does the diode laser work?
A. During treatment, an electrical current travels through the laser’s fiber optic tip, producing a controlled light beam. When directed at the treatment area, this light gently removes unwanted tissue or bacteria without cutting with a blade.
Q. What are the benefits of EVO Diode Laser therapy compared to traditional methods?
A. Benefits include:
- Minimally invasive procedures
- Reduced bleeding during treatment
- Virtually painless experience
- Faster recovery times
- No needles or stitches required
These advantages make it ideal for comfortable gum reshaping and periodontal care.
Q.Is EVO Diode Laser treatment safe?
A. Yes. All hygienists at the practice are trained and experienced in using the EVO Diode Laser safely and effectively. The technology is widely accepted by dental professionals for minor soft tissue procedures.
Q. What dental issues can EOS Diode Laser treat?
A. The EVO Diode Laser is most commonly used for gum reshaping (gingival contouring) and treating early stages of periodontal disease. It can also help in reducing bacteria in gum tissue and improving overall gum health as part of periodontal therapy.
Q. Does EVO Diode Laser treatment hurt?
A. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during EVO Diode Laser procedures. The laser’s precise action and ability to seal nerve endings and blood vessels help minimize pain. In most cases, traditional anesthesia isn’t needed.
Q. What is the recovery time after diode laser gum treatment?
A. Recovery time with the EVO Diode Laser is typically quicker than with traditional surgical methods. Many patients return to regular activities the same day with minimal soreness.
Q. How is diode laser treatment different from traditional periodontal surgery?
A. Unlike conventional gum surgery that may require incisions, stitches, and longer healing, diode laser treatment is minimally invasive, resulting in reduced bleeding, less swelling, and shorter recovery.
