The primary use of a soft-tissue laser is the modification
or removal of intra-oral soft tissue. This is used to modify
tissues and control haemostasis. The post-operative response
of the laser care will usually produce a cleaner and healthier
surgical site with less discomfort when compared to alternative
methods of surgery. Soft tissue lasers enable minor surgical
procedures and decontaminate the area at the same time. There
is less chance of infection, and some soft tissue procedures
around the gingiva can be completed without anaesthesia.
The laser also promotes healing for infected
and irritated tissues. Since there is a favourable response
to laser treatment, the resultant healing is less complicated
and often shorter when compared to traditional techniques.
In many cases, the laser can also be used to treat deep gingival
pockets that harbour bacteria and cause gum disease. An additional
benefit of dental diode laser technology is its ability to
reduce the pain and longevity of cold sores and fever blisters.

Air abrasion cavity preparations are one of
the most rapidly growing areas of dentistry. This is the
treatment of early and small cavities more conservatively
and without anaesthesia. The cavities are detected at the
earliest possible stage using Diagnodent laser technology
and Treated most conservatively using bonded dentistry.

AIR QUALITY AND DENTAL OFFICES:
The execution of dental work and the use of
various chemical compounds leads to exposure levels for dentists,
staff and patients to a range of potentially harmful airborne
contaminants.
Microorganisms:
The use of high-speed drills and ultrasonic scaling equipment
generates fine droplets which are light enough to stay airborne
for hours. Bacteria and viruses, which are contained in these
micro-droplets, are easily inhaled and constitute a potential
source of infection.
Mercury:
Mercury vapours can be released by the placement and the removal
of amalgam fillings.
Disinfectants:
Chemical disinfectants in a dental office are responsible
for a generally unpleasant odour. Some disinfectants may also
cause irritation and may have a sensitizing potential especially
for staff.
This is a great diagnostic tool, allowing the detection of
caries at the earliest stages using advanced laser technology.
Even very small lesions are detected at the earliest stage
enabling us to protect and preserve precious dental tissue
and avoiding future tissue loss and complications.
