Precise, Comfortable Care With Laser Dentistry

At Smiline, we use lasers across a range of dental treatments, including composite fillings, teeth whitening, deep cleanings, and gum disease treatment. Laser dentistry allows our dentists to perform many soft tissue procedures with less discomfort, better outcomes, and a quicker recovery than some traditional methods.

Because lasers work without heat, vibration, or pressure in the way traditional dental tools do, many patients find laser-assisted treatments more comfortable, with some procedures possible without an anaesthetic injection at all.

A Few Practical Considerations

Protective eyewear is worn during laser treatment to protect your eyes, and laser dentistry does require specialised training for the dentist performing it, which our team has. Lasers are not suited to every procedure, for example some cavities between teeth and certain restorations still need traditional methods, your dentist will explain when laser treatment is, and is not, the right choice.

Is Laser Dentistry Right for Your Treatment

Whether laser dentistry is used for your treatment depends entirely on what you need done, it is not a substitute for every procedure, but a genuine improvement for the ones it suits. Your dentist will only recommend it where it offers a real benefit over traditional methods, not simply because the technology is available.
