Round Rock Laser Dentistry – Gentle Dental Laser Treatments
Since the introduction of laser dentistry, many procedures have become less invasive and more effective. For instance, instead of treating advanced gum disease with traditional surgery, Round Rock Laser Dentistry routinely provides highly successful periodontal laser treatment.
Dr. Helen Ragsdale was a laser dentistry trailblazer in Texas, being among the first to perform hard tissue procedures. In fact, she has often taught over-the-shoulder demonstration courses, such as laser applications for gum surgery and cavity preparations, to local dentists.
Lasers are designed for specific treatments, and Dr. Ragsdale uses several both soft and hard tissue lasers. You’ll have access to a diverse list of revolutionary services as a patient of Round Rock Laser Cosmetic Dentistry.
What makes dental lasers so innovative?
- The targeted precision of a dental laser pinpoints diseased tissue, leaving a maximum amount of healthy tissue unscathed.
- For restorations such as crowns, a laser thoroughly sterilizes the tooth surface, which ultimately strengthens the bond between tooth and restoration (crown, bridge, etc.).
- When used in preventive dentistry, a dental laser can detect tooth decay at an earlier stage (demineralization) than a dentist can by studying X-rays.
- Lasers can make the teeth bleaching more efficient and effective, with reduced postprocedural sensitivity.
- Periodontal (gum) surgery to remove disease can be traumatic. Minimally invasive laser therapy results in less swelling, bleeding, discomfort, and a shorter recovery time.
