Laser therapy in dentistry provides patients with a more comfortable dental treatment experience. Using laser dentistry, your dentist is able to deliver a precise treatment that is more comfortable, quicker, and provides more stunning results.
You may be a good candidate for dental implants if you are missing some teeth, have chipped, cracked, or decaying teeth that can’t be repaired, or simply want to replace your dentures with a permanent solution.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
There are several benefits to receiving a laser therapy dental treatment.
- They’re more like natural teeth in use. You won’t have to worry about dentures slipping while you eat and you’ll be able to eat things you can’t eat now.
- They’re permanent. Made from super-strong titanium metal and integrated into your natural jawbone, it melds with your bone over time becoming even stronger.
- They reduce bone loss. While dentures aren’t integrated with the jawbone, they also don’t prevent bone loss. By stimulating your bone to produce new growth around the implants, you won’t experience the normal bone density reduction after you lose teeth.
- They keep your other teeth aligned. After tooth loss, adjacent teeth can shift and move into the empty space, causing misalignment. This can affect your bite and chewing ability. Implants prevent this from occurring.
- They can help prevent disease. By filling in the empty space, they keep bacteria and food particles from building up there causing gum disease.
- They prevent premature aging of the face. When teeth are missing and not replaced, the face begins to sag causing wrinkles and a forward-jutting chin.
