A dental treatment without a drill or a needle? It’s possible with the use of laser dentistry at Esthetic Dental Care.
Dental technology continues to offer patients a better experience with more accurate results and fewer side effects. Dr. Upadya uses some of the latest dental technologies at his Florham Park dental office, enabling him to perform many cosmetic and restorative dental procedures more effectively with better outcomes and less pain!
Laser dentistry enables Dr. Upadya, a cosmetic and restorative dentist serving the Florham Park area, to treat patients for a variety of dental problems with less pain, less bleeding, fewer side effects and a faster recovery. Dr. Upadya uses state of the art dental lasers at Esthetic Dental Care that can provide more accurate treatment of the soft tissues of the mouth, such as periodontal therapy, without a metal scalpel.
The dental laser allows Dr. Upadya to create accurate incisions with minimized bleeding and swelling: the heat and energy created by the dental laser can both numb the treated area and coagulate blood quickly to reduce bleeding and swelling. For patients, this can mean less pain and a speedier recovery: in many cases there is no need for anesthetics at all!
Laser dentistry can effectively be used for treating gum disease, placing dental implants and other dental procedures that would traditionally require a surgical incision. The use of laser dentistry reduces or eliminates the need for using sutures- which frequently require a return trip to the dentist for removal. Laser dentistry is also a very effective treatment for gum reshaping, cold sores, and treatment for sleep apnea and snoring.
For patients who suffer from dental anxiety, the use of laser dentistry can provide a much more predictable experience with less noise and discomfort during treatment. If you have been avoiding the dentist due to feeling anxious about possible treatment, Dr. Upadya can discuss how laser dentistry may enhance your dental treatment and allow you to feel relaxed and comfortable.
