Depending on the child, regular check-ups can present the child with nervousness or anxiety. At times, the reason can be the traditional dental tools. Children can be scared with the noise and pressure.
At Dentistry Junior, we offer laser dentistry for children in Bangalore. The technology is safe, painless, and tremendously efficient when compared to traditional methods. Laser dental technology takes the pressure and discomfort out of the process. Children can see the dentist and get treatment without the anxiety that is often associated with conventional methods.
What is Laser Dentistry?
Laser dentistry is a modern approach to treating conditions within the mouth using a concentrated beam of light energy. Lasers can replace scalpels and drills as they precisely and safely re-contour soft tissues, and in some cases, hard tissues such as enamel. Lasers have been used in dentistry since the 1990s, but recent technological advances have made them smaller, more precise, and safe to use with children. At Dentistry Junior, we use this technology to perform safe and painless minimally invasive procedures tailored to the needs of young children.
Benefits of Laser Dentistry for Children
Laser dentistry is a preferred option by parents due to the ease in which children have treatments provided. Lasers can replace older tools as they provide treatments quickly, more gently, and in a less intimidating fashion.
Key Advantages:
Hardly Any Discomfort: Laser technology reduces the vibration, heat, and pressure that lead to discomfort.
Maximum Precision: Only the area that needs to be treated is touched while the surrounding areas remain intact.
Less Invasive: There is less dependence on stitches and prolonged recovery, as well as anaesthesia.
Quicker Recovery: Since there is less bleeding and trauma, recovery is generally faster, especially for children.
Less Likely to be Infected: The laser treatment makes the area to be treated a lot cleaner.
Less Tension: Designed for children, the procedure is gentle and unobtrusive.
Is Laser Dentistry Safe for Children?
