12 Apr Which Type of Laser is Used in Dental Treatments
Emident Oral and Maxillofacial Clinic Dentist Ali Osman Emiroğlu talks about the types of lasers used in dental treatments.
Some people with dental disease constantly postpone sitting in the dentist’s chair because of the feeling of pain and pain, and some just because they are afraid of the sound of the instrument during the procedure. However, with the “laser dental treatments” that have come to the fore in recent years, it is possible to have a painless and comfortable treatment process without touching the tooth.
Laser treatment can be performed painlessly, without needles and anesthesia, which is one of its biggest advantages. Delight Er:Yag Laser system works with water molecules targeted. The laser energy absorbed by the water in the studied tissue creates small explosions in the target tissue. These small explosions dissolve the inter-tissue bonds and separate the tissues on the working surface from each other. Since there is no thermal or mechanical effect, the patient does not feel pain or sensitivity. Since it cuts 1 millimeter from the tissue, the treatment takes place without pain, anesthesia and bleeding.
