Frequently asked questions

What can dental lasers be used for?

Lasers may be used for selected procedures, such as some gum and soft-tissue treatments, depending on the diagnosis, the equipment available and the clinician’s training.

Is laser dentistry painless?

Some patients find laser-assisted procedures more comfortable, but experiences vary and anaesthesia may still be needed. Your dentist will explain what to expect.

Is laser treatment better than conventional treatment?

Not always. A laser is one tool among several. Your dentist can explain whether a laser-assisted approach is appropriate and how it compares with alternatives.

Is it safe?

Dental lasers are used with specific safety precautions, including protective eyewear. Treatment is carried out by trained clinicians.

Does healing take less time?

Healing depends on the procedure and the individual. In some soft-tissue procedures, laser use may reduce bleeding, but outcomes vary.

This is general information and does not replace a clinical assessment. Suitability, options and outcomes vary from person to person.
